Customer Reviews:

lots of 1970s samba.......2005-08-26

This is an interesting recording from the 1970s. The liner notes have all lyrics and a full-page historical essay by Joyce in Portuguese. The songs tend to alternate between one with Joyce and her guitar, and two short songs of voices (led by Joyce) backed by a samba percussion ensemble. Then another ballad with guitar and voice, then 2 more rousing samba pieces, and so on. There's no jazz influence, strings, or backing band as in many of her recordings. For the most part it's her and guitar, or her and more singers and samba percussion ensemble.

Joyce co-wrote the last song, other songs are by other composers. I've got 200 Brazil CDs and never heard any of these songs before; they apparently were popular in Brazil a few decades ago, but are not the worn-out, played-to-death songs you sometimes hear. (In other words, it was all fresh to me.)

I think few or none of the songs on this recording are included on Joyce's various Greatest Hits compilations so they'll probably be fresh to you too.

This is pretty different from a typical recording by Joyce. If, however, you think she's a premier singer (and you like samba), you'll like the album a lot. It was re-released on CD in 2003, original date is 1976-77.
