This heavy-weight of Brazilian music was also a young revolutionary who used his music to protest against Brazil’s oppressive military regime. This protest music, which became known as Tropicalia, first earned Veloso some time in jail, but by the time this album was released in 1971, it had placed him in exile in the UK. His bitterness and melancholy can be heard on every groove of this album.
