Customer Reviews fantastic! Since I've discovered Faraco I can't stop listening to him. I only know a little Portuguese but people tell me the lyrics are poetic. All three CD's are great. Faraco is the only Brazilian music beside the 1963 classic Getz/Gilberto (girl from Ipanema) album I can listen to consistently without ever getting tired of it. The subtleties in the recordings really come out with a good high-end stereo system. Faraco deserves to be much more popular/known. It's too bad Brazilian music (Jazz/Bosso?)in the vein of Gilberto is not as popular in the world as it was in the 60's. Otherwise we might be calling Marcio Faraco "o mito novo" ;-) I can't wait for the next CD! And when will he tour to the USA??? !!!. Instant Classic! . I bought this CD some 6 months ago here in Barcelona, and it is by far the best Samba recording I have in my collection, Marcio Faraco is the real thing, a sambista true to it's roots and a songwriter and poet as there are few today, an artist of great knowledge and sensibility - names like Nick Drake, Pat Matheny and Caetano Veloso come to my mind while listing to this beautiful music, Márcio Faraco deserves much more recognition then just this little, single review on Amazon. .
