Elis Regina "Vento De Maio" (1978)
While much of the popular music coming out of Brazil had been the cool,
low-key chilled out bossa nova and tropicalia music; Elis Regina was a
different proposition altogether. Elis was a show-woman who had hosted
tv shows, duetted with various other singers and won talent contests.
Her music was hot, extroverted and wearing its heart on its sleeve.
This isn't too bad of an album, though with touches of disco and soft funk,
and some of the production it sounds a bit dated in places.
