More international music which is always a treat; we are exposed to it so little. There are a lot of musical languages out there and I hardly think English tops the list. This time it is Portuguese!
I cannot speak a word of Portuguese. In fact, I don't think I have ever even heard someone speaking Portuguese, except of course, in this journey. Maybe I just need to get out more! Anyway, the language is already beautiful but setting it to music is like a poetic explosion. Of course, I can't understand the lyrics but from what I looked up, the lyrics are just as beautiful as the music.
The book says that this band was heavily influenced by the Beatles and it is clearly seen throughout this album that their main source of inspiration was Sgt. Pepper. Check it out; this is certainly another treasure I wouldn't have experienced without the list.
RATING: 5/5
