note:
An amazing record, one that stands as one of Chico Buarque's
greatest from the 70s!
The set was recorded in Italy in 1970 and features Chico
singing lead vocals over backings handled by Ennio Morricone,
all in a style that's a perfect blend of MPB with the best
elements of the Italian scene of the time!
The songs are all originals written by Chico and have a
light and dreamy samba/Bossa feel, one that's inflected
by the off-Beat orchestral style of Morricone, and supported
by vocals from I Cantori Moderni.
The feel is halfway between Chico's work on RGE and some
of the dreamier Morricone soundtracks of the time and it's
a wonderful thing to have a strong male lead vocal over
backings from Morricone a really rare thing for the time,
with results that are tremendous.
Titles include "Rotativa", "Samba E Amore",
"Nicanor", "Tu Sei Una Di Noi", "In
Te", "Ed Ora Dico Sul Serio", and "Quete
E Quelle"
