"This was Sandy Denny's third solo-album. On her second album, the much acclaimed "Sandy", she had begun a slow departure from her folk-music roots. On this album you probably would not have thought of there being any folk-roots at all, if it had not been for her backing band consisting of people ..." [+] Reply

May be a little ha..." [+] Reply
"The beginning of Zé's most experimental period (which never really ended). Not as celebrated as the posterior "Estudando o Samba", but it's as good. Better heard with headphones.
