This is almost a random poll, since I would make a completly different periodization for brazilian music, but then there would be a lot of artists that are not on PA, and does not necessarily are prog (as Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Gal Costa, Jards Macalé, Jorge Mautner... and so many others).

But there are some unity on those bands, thinking in the end of the 60's and the early-middle seventies as a more "free style" of experimentation was common.

You guys can take a look on what would be a Rank from this period here.

I did get between A Barca do Sol, Terreno Baldio e Secos & Molhados... but S&M won in a second thought without exitate. Smile

By the way, unbeliveable thing is that Egberto Gismonti is not in PA.

The country of muses ! Always adore what came from Brazil, first music I heard in the cradle with Bach and the Beatles. It was the eponymous album of Joao Gilberto, the album with the white cover, the softest album in the world.  His music was immediately accessible and at the same time incredibly rich and complex melodically and rhythmically. In the fifties, many american jazz men felt to play on those tunes. And they were not bad musicians. Ermm
Of that list, my two heroes are Hermeto Pasocal and Tom Ze (Thanks David Byrne and Arto Lindsay !)
BTW: where is Arrigo Barnabe ?

There are some on the list that I don't know at all. But Hermeto will always have a special place in my heart, so I voted for him.

I'm with Pierre - Brazil is such a wonderful country when it comes to music. I almost went for Os Mutantes as I love everything I own from them (debut, Tudo... and. OAeoZ), but in the end I have to vote for Hermeto Pascoal. The man is a genius. His brand of loco avant fusion with flourishes of all kinds of endemic Brazilian music is just heavenly to me.

Oh and before I forget here's a quick shout out to my absolute favourite from the green and yellow land: Milton Nascimento
“The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”
