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 http://www.progarchives.com/top-prog-albums.asp?ssubgenres=&salbumtypes=1&syears=1975&syears=1974&syears=1973&syears=1972&syears=1971&syears=1970&syears=1969&syears=1968&syears=1967&syears=1966&scountries=108&sminratings=1&smaxratings=0&sminavgratings=0&smaxresults=100&x=40&y=7#list" rel="nofollow - here . ------------- - From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. |

| Voted Secos & Molhados. 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.  Of that list, my two heroes are Hermeto Pasocal and Tom Ze (Thanks David Byrne and Arto Lindsay !) BTW: where is Arrigo Barnabe ?  |

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.

^ I dont get it, its a french film who has samba? Is that it? Som Imaginário has played with Milton Nascimento in two of his albums, and they are both great. Still in Zé Rodrix' times, with a more psychdelic aproach. I guess that soon I'am going to do the next phase of this poll, 1976-1980-and something. ------------- - From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. |

^ Is Zé Rodrix the Brazilian Hendrix?

Of course not! In all meanings, the brazilian Hendrix is Lanny Gordin! He was the guitarrist from the main albums of the Tropicália Movement and some of Jazz. He played in the album I posted above, Brazilian Octopus, the three first solo albums of Gal Costa, two of Caetano Veloso and two of Gilberto Gil. He was the main name of the psychdelic/acid/tropicalia electric guitar untill he have a crisis of schzofrenia and were putted in a mental hospital in early seventies. Recently he worked with a band (that sadly were rejected in PA), Kaoll, where he show he is still in great shape. http://https://soundcloud.com/bizu-1/lanny-gordin-is-god-bizu-mix" rel="nofollow - Here you have a compilation of his guitar solos ; http://https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1636663313217625&id=1380662232151069" rel="nofollow - and here there is a video of him playing with Gilberto Gil . ------------- - From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. |
