This is a compilation of relatively obscure tracks by three Brazilian superstars. The contributions by Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil are satisfactory, but there are many other compilations with better selections. From Gil, there is a live version of "Iemanja" that moves along at a good clip with a killer vocal, but the sound is muddy. Veloso's tunes are all forgettable. The lion's share of material here is by Maria Bethania, and in this way, we are treated to a delightful set of her singing the compositions of countryman Noel Rosa, whose "Tres Apitos" and "Pra Que Mentirr" (both featured here) are practically Brazilian anthems, accompanied primarily by her stellar acoustic guitar playing. Of these tracks, it's the album's closer, "Silençio De Un Minuto," that Bethania has recorded no less than three other times, that is the finest track on the album; a ballad in the purest, most aching sense of the word, her dry, smoky delivery creates a wall of tears for the listener to sift her way through, whether or not they understand the language, because the emotional transference is that pure. This isn't an excellent compilation by any stretch of the imagination, but it is worth the budget price because of the Bethania performances alone.

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG VERY GOOD+(+) . CAUTION: The vinyl is NOT MINT or NEAR MINT, but is nevertheless in a very nice and clean condition. There are some surface marks and abrasions, mostly light and superficial, although some may be longer than 1.1/4 inches (1 inch = 2.5 centimeters)

(b)          The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)           The record has a "deep groove" (an indent in the label about 1/2-inch from the edge of the label, which on SOME labels is associated with very early or first pressings).

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER (THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, LAMINATED, GLOSSY COVER):

THE COVER IS ABOUT VERY GOOD+ (VG+)

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-        Cover has a partially split spine (between 2 and 4 inches  / 5 to 10 centimeters); This split seam was delicately taped by the previous owner with a piece of transparent scotch tape

-        Cover has some fraying/wear along the opening side  (VISIBLE ON BACK SIDE ONLY)

-        Cover has JUST A HINT of ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 2.

-        Cover shows some light yellowing on both sides, apparently from aging (nothing significant)

-        Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the seams and across both panels, front and back

-        Cover has a visible "wrinkle"(crease)  in one of the corners.

-        Visible shelf wear noted on the top and bottom seams

-        Cover has two corners slightly worn / dinged 

-        Back cover has a few yellowish dust speckles scattered here and there (these tiny spots are not overly obtrusive or distracting)

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
