CAETANO VELOSO: Transa Vinyl LP 180 Gram Limited Edition Sealed -New Other- Read

New Sealed, Light Corner Edge Wear. See Pics

Collector's Reissue - 180 gram vinyl - Original Artwork - Limited Edition. Reissue of the long unavailable 1972 recording by the influential Caetano Veloso, considered the leading figure in Brazil's Tropiclia movement. 'Transa' marks Veloso's fourth album and like its predecessor, it was recorded while he was exiled in London. Caetano himself considers it one of his favourite records and regards "Nine Out of Ten" as his best song in English. 'Transa' was listed by Rolling Stone Brazil as one of the 10 best Brazilian albums ever. It remains one of the MPB's essential albums. Elemental Music, together with Universal Music Spain proudly presents a new LP reissue of this long unavailable 1972 recording by the influential CAETANO VELOSO, considered the leading figure in Brazil's Tropiclia movement. Transa is generally regarded as a classic and was recorded while the artist was exiled in London, though he returned to Brazil shortly after completing it. The sound of '70s electric rock predominates, fused with Brazilian rhythms and percussion, berimbau sounds, and his own violo playing. Perhaps this is why this album has gained in stature over the years. It offers enough Western styles to keep outsiders interested but also sounds undoubtedly Brazilian. It also helps that it features strong numbers as "You Don't Know Me", "Nine out of Ten" (his best song in English according to Caetano himself), "Neolithic Man" and "Mora Na Filosofia" (a song that originally caused uproar thanks to its rock treatment of a classic samba). "Nostalgia (That's What Rock 'n' Roll Is All About)" can also be seen as the template for Devendra Banhart's first albums. Transa was listed by Rolling Stone Brazil as one of the 10 best Brazilian albums ever and Pitchfork elected "You Don't Know Me" as the 73rd best song from the seventies.
