Album Notes & Community Reviews
Gal Costa delivers a lush, incredibly sensual fusion of traditional MPB and contemporary American soul music on 'Caras & bocas'. Her pristine, versatile vocals glide over arrangements featuring deep funk basslines and smooth, jazzy orchestration. The album beautifully encapsulates the sophisticated evolution of Brazilian popular music in the late 1970s.
