During his lifetime, Brazilian singer-songwriter Manduka was something of a globetrotter, spending periods of time living in Argentina and Europe as well as his native Brazil. In 1972, when this brilliant debut album was first issued, he was based in Chile. Not that the set boasted much of a Chilean music influence: instead, it saw Manduka lay down a set of samba-influenced folk songs whose minimalist acoustic elements (lead vocals, guitar, backing vocals) came doused in dream pop style reverb and delay. Naturally, original copies are extremely hard to find (not to mention prohibitively expensive on the second-hand market), making this reissue more than welcome. It remains a brilliant album and arguably Manduka's strongest work.
