Encontros E Despedidas

LP (Item 25011) Barclay (Brazil), 1985 — Condition: Very Good+
A nicely understated 80s set from Milton Nascimento – a record that still has that heavenly, soaring sensibility in his vocals – but which maybe also has some of the intimacy you might expect from the cover's image of Milton walking alone in a forest! There's some jazzy currents in the music, but just a bit – and the set does include contributions from Pat Metheny and Hubert Laws – but the vibe is very much Nascimento's own, on titles that include "Lagrima Do Sul", "Raca", "Quem Perguntou Por Mim", "A Primeira Estrela", "Encontros E Despedidas", "Mar Do Nosso Amor", and "Vidro E Corte".  © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Brazilian Barclay pressing. Includes the insert. Cover has light wear, some aging, and is bent a bit at the edges.)

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Condition Notes

If something is relevant, we try to describe it in the notes — especially if it is release or pressing details, or an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Yauarete (portrait cover)
CBS, 1988. Near Mint-
A tightly produced effort from the late 80s – with a sound that's certainly more commercial than some of Milton's earlier albums, but which is still graced by some great vocals and occasional soulful moments.

Journey To Dawn
A&M, 1979. Near Mint-
One of Milton's last of the 70s – and a darn nice album recorded in the US. The arrangements are larger than ever, with beautifully baroque vocal choruses, strangely orchestrated instrumental passages, and Milton's wonderfully soulful vocals soaring out amidst the whole thing.

Gal Costa

Aquarela Do Brasil
Philips (Brazil), 1980. Very Good+ Gatefold
Gal Costa pays tribute to one of the greatest Brazilian songwriters of an earlier age – the great Ary Barroso, one of the first to also get his songs translated into other global languages too! The language here is all Portuguese, though – but nicely updated by Gal in that range of ... LP, Vinyl record album

Maria Bethania

Passaro Proibido
Philips (Brazil), 1976. Very Good Gatefold
An amazing 70s album from the legendary Maria Bethania – one of those records that's without precedent, and which comes together in an array of styles that's simply breathtaking! The sound here is a bit more focused and mature than some of Maria's earlier records, but the overall work is no ... LP, Vinyl record album

Quinteto Violado

Quinteto Violado (1972)
Philips (Brazil), 1972. Very Good
One of the best albums ever by this rootsy Brazilian instrumental combo!

LP, Vinyl record album

Gal Costa

Personalidade
Philips (Brazil), 1970s/Early 1980s. Near Mint-
Gal's always been one of Brazil's greatest artists – whether she was singing strange raw tunes during her Tropicalia period, or moving into nice jazzy material during her later years. This set's a good introduction to her work, and it includes a lot of nice tracks that we don't always turn ... LP, Vinyl record album

Sacha

No Balaio
London (Brazil), 1967. Very Good+

Featuring Jorge Ben, Elis Regina, Gilberto Gil, Quarteto Em Cy, Jair Rodrigues, and more. LP, Vinyl record album

Maria Bethania

Ciclo
Philips (Brazil), 1983. Very Good
A nicely rootsy little album from Maria Bethania – recorded during a period when some of her music could often sound much fuller and more electric! The album's got subtle help from Toninho Horta, Dori Caymmi, and Guto Graca Mello – all of whom arrange Maria's vocals in a sophisticated ... LP, Vinyl record album

Elis Regina & Antonio Carlos Jobim

Elis & Tom
Philips (Brazil), 1974. Very Good+ Gatefold
An incredible album – and a landmark session that showed that the bossa nova was still alive and well in the 1970s! The album pairs the breathy jazz vocals of Elis Regina with the booze-soaked warmth of Antonio Carlos Jobim – in a set of spare arrangements that feature a lot of touches ... LP, Vinyl record album

Los Brasilios

Brasilian Beat '67
Design, 1967. Very Good+
A very unusual bit of bossa nova – and a record that seems to criss-cross a few different A&M Records modes of the 60s! At one level, the group's got a Brasil 66 feel – since they use a female vocal chorus on some cuts, breezing along with the grooves in a style that's definitely ... LP, Vinyl record album
