1	Putumayo Presents: Acoustic Brazil (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Acoustic Brazil is Putumayo's fourth installment in its popular regional series which includes Brasileiro, Samba Bossa Nova and Brazilian Groove. Focusing again on bossa nova and samba canção, the compilers have put together a heady mix of old and new, with legendary performers like Gal Costa, Caetano Veloso and Chico Buarque crooning alongside ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
2	Brazil Classics, Vol. 1: Beleza Tropical (1989) more music like this by Various Artists Brazil Classics, Beleza Tropical is the first in a series compiled by Talking Heads singer David Byrne that preceded the big wave of interest in Tropicalia during the late '90s by almost a decade. Performers include such influential Brazilian figures as Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, and Jorge Ben, with several songs from each. The selected ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $2.99!
3	Nova Bossa: Red Hot on Verve (1959) more music like this by Various Artists In the hope that Red Hot + Rio would ignite interest in Brazilian music within the X-Generation, Verve simultaneously released a historical survey with similar cover art, similar noise interludes between tracks, and occasionally, the same tunes (do not be confused!). Although some of the same old stuff reissued a thousand times before is here (the ... see all copies from $9.91! new only from $9.91!
4	Bebel Gilberto (2004) more music like this by Bebel Gilberto Although Bebel Gilberto has been writing, performing, and recording since her childhood, this is only her second full-length solo album. The child of Brazilian legend João Gilberto and the celebrated singer Miucha, she comes by her musical talent honestly, but has honed and developed it carefully over the years, being careful not to overexpose ... see all copies from $5.67! new only from $5.67!
5	Prenda Minha (1999) more music like this by Caetano Veloso In this uneven album, Caetano Veloso used cool jazz and Gil Evans' orchestrations as the raw material for his synthesis with contemporary Bahian rhythms -- "Terra," from 1978, is an epic description in which Sketches of Spain influences dialogue with their rhythmic similarity with Bahian grooves. The track is the best of the album, which brings no ... see all copies from $2.71! new only from $9.57!
6	Gal Tropical (1979) more music like this by Gal Costa see all copies from $12.95! new only from $12.95!
7	Bebel Gilberto Remixed (2005) more music like this by Bebel Gilberto Bebel Gilberto Remixed follows a certain pattern. After the Brazilian songstress with the sacred genes scored a hit record with her modern classic Tanto Tempo in 2000, her record label, Six Degrees, pieced together and released a remix album in its wake, Tanto Tempo Remixes. While that remix album didn't come close to matching the magic of its ... see all copies from $3.13! new only from $10.25!
8	Music Typewriter (2001) more music like this by Moreno + 2 When you're the son of Caetano Veloso, one of Brazil's most beloved singer/songwriters and men of letters, you have to face a lot of expectations when you release your debut record. But Moreno Veloso is no clone; while he's inherited the wry iconoclasm of his father, he stamps himself all over this record, letting his personal musical ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
9	Sol da Liberdade (2000) more music like this by Daniela Mercury Call this a bid for the big time by the queen of axé music, and one of Brazil's biggest stars. By enlisting the talents of one of Latin music's biggest producers, Emilio Estefan, Jr., it's nothing less than an attempt to crack the lucrative American market. The question is, can she do it -- adding the gloss and sheen -- without losing her roots? ... see all copies from $7.73! new only from $9.49!
10	Transa (1972) more music like this by Caetano Veloso Transa was the first LP recorded by Caetano Veloso upon his return from exile in London, England (1972). The sound of '70s electric rock predominates, fused with Brazilian rhythms and percussion, berimbau sounds, and his own violão playing. Several lyrics in English, and also in Portuguese, carefully avoid direct reference to politics, which may ... see all copies from $10.72! new only from $10.72!
11 view cover	The Shine of Dried Electric Leaves (2006) more music like this by Cibelle For anyone fond of Cibelle's 2003 self-titled debut, a pleasant album of Brazilian downtempo typical of Six Degrees (a trendy worldbeat label based in San Fransisco with a Lonely Planet -like following), The Shine of Dried Electric Leaves is likely to generate a sense of surprise. It's a bold move in an indistinct direction, away from the broadly ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $14.49!
12 view cover	Noites Do Norte (2001) more music like this by Caetano Veloso Veloso continues to show his pre-eminence as a singer and songwriter with Noites Do Norte. He may be almost 60, but he's far from set in his ways, still chipping away at lyrical and musical boundaries. But where he looked outward many years ago, getting inspiration from the rock music of Britain and America, these days he looks inside, at Brazil, ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $16.90!
13 view cover	Brazilian Rhapsody (2000) more music like this by Daniel Barenboim & Milton Mascimento With tangos and Ellingtonia under his belt, this ever-curious occasional crossover classicist takes another break from the Berlin Staatsoper, the Chicago Symphony, and Bayreuth to dabble in an unfamiliar (to him) idiom. Though the results are about as spontaneous as a sunrise, this collection does cover a wide range of brief bits of Braziliana -- ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $6.95!
14 view cover	Memories, Chronicles and Declarations of Love (2000) more music like this by Marisa Monte On this album, the always correct Marisa Monte preferred to stick to pop grooves, instead of the strong adherence to Brazilian rhythms heard in some of her previous albums. There are exceptions, though. "Abololô" is an exquisite rendition for a beautiful melody in a typical Northeastern modal scale (Lydian b7), which sounds pretty exotic, haunting ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $10.23!
15 view cover	Caetano Veloso (Irene) (1969) more music like this by Caetano Veloso This second Caetano Veloso solo LP was recorded in June 1969, when Veloso and Gilberto Gil were behind the bars of the military dictatorship. The albums (Gil also recorded his own) were devised in part to provide them with a connection to the outside world through which authorities would be discouraged of attempting some violence against them. The ... see all copies from $21.98! new only from $21.98!
16 view cover	World of Brazil (2005) more music like this by Lee Ritenour see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
17 view cover	Pavarotti & Friends for Cambodia & Tibet (2000) more music like this by Luciano Pavarotti & Friends see all copies from $4.75! new only from $15.40!
18 view cover	Acoustic (1994) more music like this by Gilberto Gil This is undoubtedly the equivalent of Gilberto Gil "Unplugged" -- Gil, his acoustic guitar, and a nonelectric five-piece band recorded live in a studio -- and it is a thoroughly musical triumph as Gil mesmerizes his attentive audience for some 74 minutes. He starts out with the nearly pure reggae of "A Novidade," but before long, he establishes ... see all copies from $3.08! new only from $9.20!
19 view cover	Bossa Nova Brasil (1991) more music like this by Various Artists A good various-artists sampler of the modern Brazilian sound, including cuts from contemporary artists like Jorge Ben and Gilberto Gil. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.65! new only from $9.91!
20 view cover	The Earth Is Blue (2005) more music like this by Damon & Naomi Damon & Naomi's sixth album, The Earth Is Blue, is their first for the duo's newly formed label, 20/20/20. The move away from Sub Pop didn't have any effect on their sound, though; the album is as lovely and inspired as any of their last few, beginning with 1998's Playback Singers. They manage the balance of art and emotion like few other bands, ... see all copies from $9.72! new only from $9.72!
21 view cover	Elétrica (1998) more music like this by Daniela Mercury Daniela Mercury is so kinetic that she could make the Energizer Bunny seem lazy. What better way to channel that energy than with a live album, one so lively listeners find themselves gasping for breath halfway through and wondering if she'll make it to the end. Her Salvador axé style mixes up reggae and African music with local Bahian beats and ... see all copies from $7.90! new only from $10.30!
22 view cover	Meu Nome é Gal: The Best of Gal Costa (1990) more music like this by Gal Costa Although she has released dozens of recordings in her three-decade long career, this anthology is the best place to be introduced to one of the great voices in pop music. Covering a period from the start of tropicalia in the late '60s up to post-military dictatorship years of the '80s, this is as strong a collection of Costa's material as one is ... see all copies from $9.83! new only from $9.83!
23 view cover	Live in Bahia (2002) more music like this by Caetano Veloso Caetano Veloso has released his share of live albums over the years, but he still manages to make each one a delight, which is no mean feat. Live in Bahia takes him home to the region where he grew up, and where the audience is his from the first note. Put out to coincide with the publication of his book, Tropical Truth, he's not afraid to delve ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $23.18!
24 view cover	Cê (2006) more music like this by Caetano Veloso During his long career, spanning five decades, Caetano Veloso has managed to sustain a remarkable consistency, year after year composing beautiful, inventive, and very often simply ingenious music. His previous album, A Foreign Sound, where Caetano interpreted classics from the American popular music scene, was widely applauded abroad and ... see all copies from $8.33! new only from $8.33!
25 view cover	Back to Mine (2001) more music like this by Morcheeba Morcheeba's Paul Godfrey compiled and mixed this volume of the Back to Mine series of chill-out albums. Godfrey's imaginative choices, which reflect some of the sounds that have influenced and inspired his group, include New Orleans R&B (Dr. John), Tropicalia (Os Mutantes), Indian soundtrack music (Kittu), and even alternative country-rock ... see all copies from $10.52! new only from $10.52!
