Nelson Angelo & Joyce - Nelson Angelo & Joyce CD : Release Information

Nelson Angelo & Joyce - Nelson Angelo & Joyce. CD. (MARIPOSA - MCDS 408) Special collaboration from 1972 between Brazilian composer Angelo (one of the founding members of Milton Nascimento's "Clube da Esquina," that seminal Brazilian musical community comparable to those of Tropicalia and Bossa Nova in its importance, and his then-wife, the legendary Joyce; Joyce needs no introduction to those who are hip to Brazilian music: suffice to say she is one of that nations greatest musicians, a statement that has been borne out throughout her more than thirty years making music. The result of the couples great talent and mutual affection is a spacey, psychedelic-tinged acoustic album (dare we say, acid folk?) that beautifully combines the talents of these two guitarists, who were very much in love at the time they recorded the songs contained therein. The music is very similar in tone to Nascimento and Lô Borges' "Clube da Esquina" LP from the same year-no surprise once you know that Angelo was playing on that amazing album too! Limited edition reissue has original artwork, and a hefty booklet with biography, photos, and lyrics.
