This album marked Djavan's association with American producers. After signing with CBS, he recorded this album in the U.S.A. (in Portuguese), which was produced by Ronnie Foster. For that occasion, Quincy Jones acquired the publishing rights of many of his songs through Djavan's own publisher Luanda. The album is divided between a romantic section and swinging tunes. "Pétala" and "Açaí" (pop ballads), "Nobreza," and "Banho de Rio" (orchestral cançoes) take charge of the romantic part. "Luz," "Capim," "Sina," "Samurai," "Esfinge," and "Minha Irma" are the swinging segment. The interesting harmonies/melodies and the jazz-like arrangements of this section aroused interest for Djavan's music in the U.S.A. and some of these songs and others were recorded by Manhattan Transfer, among others. The album had important guest artists: Stevie Wonder, Ernie Watts, Hubert Laws, Harvey Mason, Abraham Laboriel, Raul de Souza, and the conducting of Oscar Castro-Neves, and others; several hits were included, such as "Pétala," "Capim," "Sina," "Samurai," and "Açaí." ~ Alvaro Neder

Japanese exclusive CD reissue of the Brazilian singer/composer's 1982 album. Guests include Stevie Wonder, Ernie Watts, Hubert Laws, Harvey Mason, Abraham Laboriel, Raul de Souza & Oscar Castro-Neves. Ten tracks including the hits, 'Petala', 'Capim', 'Sina', 'Samurai' & 'Acai.'

Schizophrenia Of Love
Chester Owens Schizophrenia Of Love CD  (2003)

Luz
CD $14.79
Below is a brief description of the CD, Schizophrenia of Love and a few word about the artist, Chester OwensAbout Schizophrenia of LoveSchizophrenia of Love explores a journey, one of many, through love and relationships. All of the songs have a idealistic and cynical side except Song for My Daughter. This piece is about the pure love and hope that parents have for their daughter. We begin with the voices in our heads that dictate the confusion of that first glance, those first feelings and the Schizophrenia that can haunt us in our relationships. As we melt into that first glance, we run away into a fantasy of how our future will be. In an instant, we know the we will be Lovers (In) Forever. So we go out on a few dates and the big night of the consumation of our new relationship finally arrives. We watch television, but not really. We're too filled with anticipation, nervousness. Until finally, someone makes the first move into the Midnight Groove. The next day, overwhelmed, we fantisize intensely with a lust and duality about that next meeting. A feeling so hot that it can only be expressed as I Wanna Be Your God, I Wanna Be Your Slave. Finally, lust evolves into that giddy feeling or sometimes queasy feeling of love. And all we can think about is how complete they make us feel When They (You) Kiss Me On My Neck and how love was just a word Before You. If you are lucky, there is real commitment, a child is born and you sing a song of love and hope in a Song For My Daughter. All to often though, the joy of a new child is followed by the sorrow of breaking up. And when we're apart we seem to remember all the good things that did not seem to be there when we were together. All we can do is feel how much we are Missing You. Will you was written as a comentary on how the horrors of our society are created and how those horrors can slowly be faded away. A social commentary of the effects of love or the lack thereof.Finally, What I Owe You, is just a means to shaking a little ass. Party! About Chester OwensChester W. Owens, Jr. - Guitarist, Songwriter, Producer. Chester has played guitar since the young age of eight. His most recent position has been to work with ...
