Caetano Veloso - Cinema Transcendental - 180 Gram Limited Edition LP

180 Gram Limited Edition LP

Released in 1979, Cinema Transcendental marks one of Caetano Veloso’s last quasiacoustic albums. It features a mix of styles (pop, bossa, samba and jazz), imaginative arrangements, unpredictable melodies and verses of devastating lyrical power. Highlights include “Lua de São Jorge,” “Oração ao Tempo,” “Beleza Pura,” and the lesser-known reggae-flavored “Trilhos Urbanos.”
