Saddened by Gal Costa's death. She turned her hand to a wide variety of styles during her amazing career: from some pretty abrasive, psychedelic stuff as a member of the Tropicalia movement, through bossa nova, and into smooth Brazilian pop. Her lovely voice was a constant though. It sounds like a cliche, but the warmth of it makes me feel that she's singing just for me in a really down to earth way, even though I barely understand a word of Portuguese 
. I found this video wasting time on YouTube quite a few years ago, and it's really quite strange. It seems to be from an Italian TV special that Costa did in 1978, and it might be attempting to approximate a scene from Bahia, where she grew up. Anyway it's mad, quite sexy, and maybe a tad exploitative. The video quality is pretty poor, and the camera work might make you a little sea-sick: a lovely song though. Obrigada Gal.

Oh Yes!!!
That is tremendous and is well in the Venn Diagram of a lot of the retrowave stuff I have been inhaling these last 4 years.
Apologies. Didn't mean to post this. Fat finger. I will have it for tomorrow. It is lovely.
