Just finished listening to a great Chico Buarque record. Incredible music. How I came to own a Chico Buarque record is an unfortunately common story. In 2003, I was working on a demo tape at New England Conservatory with a singer. She sang a gorgeous Chico Buarque tune on that demo, but I never managed to grab the title or which record it came from, so I started flailing about trying to find the song. I never found it. But I did get this great Chico Buarque record, Chico Buarque (Barclay 825 161-4), and it’s beautiful. If you can find it, get it.
Best, R.
