Part of the never-ending series of Brazilian greats on the British Wrasse label, A Diva From Bahia is a fine compilation of Gal Costa's work, spanning the whole of her career. As with similar releases for other artists, the album collects pieces from the very beginning of her career up nearly to the present day. Also like others in the series however, the tracks are in something of a mixed order. Chronology here is better than many, with eras of work collected together, but it would appear that the main focus in ordering tracks is to make a pleasing transition from song to song (which, of course, is a key to creating a good album aside from chronology). Costa's voice is the prototypical female Brazilian songstress, caressing the lyrics and working well with interplay between herself and the band. Perhaps a greater feature, though, is the collection of compositions. Caetano Veloso has a song here; Erasmo Carlos has a song; Jorge Ben has a song; Tom Jobim has a song. The greats of MPB are all presented through the voice of Costa, and she puts a fine mark upon their work. ~ Adam Greenberg Diva From Bahia. The Definitive Collection Music Gal Costa Diva From Bahia.

Diva From Bahia. The Definitive Collection songs
$9.99 
By late 1966, it seemed as if every TV commercial and every pop arranger had latched onto the Herb Alpert "Ameriachi" sound -- at which point the resourceful originator of that sound began to pare it down and loosen it up a bit. S.R.O. (Standing Room Only), referring to the Tijuana Brass' string of sold-out concerts, is an accurate title, for this LP is about a seven-piece band loaded with experienced jazzers who groove and swing together to a greater degree than on their previous albums. Sure, the arrangements are very tightly knit and don't allow much room for spontaneity, but they still sound fresh and uninhibited, and Alpert often allows the flavor of jazz to come through more clearly. Indeed, two of the album's three hit singles, "The Work Song" and "Flamingo," are ...

| | Francesco De Gregori CD (1974)
Diva From Bahia. The Definitive Collection CD music
$12.45
This 1974 self-titled Francesco De Gregori release has many points in common with its predecessor, Alice Non Lo Sa. Often called "the Sheep Album" because of its cover, this record was also criticized for its obscurity and failed to produce any hit singles, although -- just as with the previous album -- its first track, "Niente da Capire," would eventually become a De Gregori classic. A wry but still affectionate portrait of a very peculiar ex-lover, "Niente da Capire" also manages to make fun of the accusations of hermeticism leveled at De Gregori, as each stanza features a good serving of surrealistic ...
