About Baiao De Viramundo: Tribute To Luiz Gonzaga
2000 release. Luiz Gonzaga, a singer and accordionist born in 1912 in the boondocks of northeastern Brazil, might seem an odd honoree of a tribute from such a diverse array of 21st-century vanguardists as funk-punks Nação Zumbi, jazz sophisticates Nouvelle, world percussionist Nana Vasconcelos, laptop wizard DJ Dolores, chic chanteuse Andrea Marquee, and protest singer Otto, but listen to this surprising and very enjoyable album, and it all makes sense. Like Gonzaga, who was an outsider and boundary-crosser too, these artists are deeply rooted in Brazilian folk traditions but not at all restrained by them. Also includes tracks by Black Alien, Speed Freaks, Rica Amabis; Mestre Ambrósio; Eddie; Sheik Tosado; Stela Campos; Chão e Chinelo; João Carlos; Comadre Florzinha; Cascabulho; Mundo Livre S/A; and Anvil FX & Lex Lilith.
