My Top 10:
Gilberto Gil & Jorge Ben - Ogum Xangô
Caetano Veloso - Jóia (Some of the most earthy pop music you're ever likely to hear)
Joyce & Nelson Ângelo - Nelson Ângelo e Joyce (Haunting harmonic psyche-folk perfection)
Tom Zé - Todos os Olhos
Gilberto Gil - Gilberto Gil (the one with all the fuzzy electric guitar licks)
Marcos Valle - Previsão do Tempo (Summery moog music)
Os Mutantes - A Divina Comédia ou Ando Meio Desligado (I've played the debut to death so until I re-discover it this is my fave of theirs)
Gal Costa - Gal (Sexy harpy screaming with some more awesome fuzzy guitar)
Baden Powell & Vinícius de Moraes - Os Afro Sambas
Lula Côrtes e Zé Ramalho - Paêbirú (Everyone here with psychedelia in their veins should hear this)
Underrated:
Edu Lobo - Edu Lôbo (I think Brazilians found naming albums a bit of a chore)
V.A. - Posicoes
Alceu Valença & Geraldo Azevedo - Alceu Valença & Geraldo Azevedo
Alceu Valença - Molhado de Suor
Walter Franco - Ou Não
Paulinho da Viola - Foi Um Rio que Passou em Minha Vid
Bola Sete - Ocean Memories
