Album Notes & Community Reviews

Propelled by his extraordinarily percussive acoustic guitar style and virtuosic scat-singing, 'Linha de passe' is a joyous, highly rhythmic masterpiece of MPB. Jo茫o Bosco seamlessly merges complex jazz harmonies with regional Brazilian folklore, delivering sharp, satirical lyrics alongside his primary collaborator Aldir Blanc. The incredibly infectious title track permanently cemented his legacy as a titan of Brazilian popular music.
