While no new Chico Buarque album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1970 tour in Asia. Since Chico Buarque last CD (Chico Buarque de Hollanda Vol4) on SixSteps records back in 1970, I have felt a massive void in my life. This thirteen-song debut EP shows the promise that Chico Buarque has. Chico Buarque is one of my favourite bands of all time.
This track is a great song that still never gets old. Ilmo, SR. Ciro Monteiro on Receita Pra Virar Casaca de which is my favorite is a truly Chico Buarque sounding song. Agora Falando Srio without a doubt is the standout song of Chico Buarque de Hollanda Vol4. This song is dynamic and dramatic. Nicanor is probably the highlight of the album. Rosa Dos Ventos is flawed, nonetheless pretty good song. Samba Amor - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Pois is a bit different from Chico Buarque stereotypical stuff. Cara Cara - This one is what it is: a powerful, primal invitation to love. Chico Buarque is hitting on all cylinders in Mulher, Vou Dizer Quanto Te Amo. Tema de ”os Inconfidentes” is outstanding work of Chico Buarque.
