I was seven when "Brasil" was released. Remember it like it was yesterday. Much love to the transfer and the legendary Tim Hauser. Thanks so much for this post.
In 1988 I was in the Navy and bought this on cassette tape in a mall in North Carolina. I was SO homesick until I got home and began playing 'Brasil'. I wore it OUT and felt happy and joyous whenever I heard it. Magical music which turned me on to Djavan, the Caymmi familia, Ivan Lins and the magnificent music of the immensely talented musicians of Brasil .
I bought this album when I was working and living in the Black Hills. When everybody else was listening to country out there, I had my Soul Food to Go.
The album is phenomenal with awesome elaborations on Djavan. This music video, though, is entirely unexpected at the same time that it's so very them. So curiously weird. Must have been so fun to work on this video back in the 80s.
I think this is my fave song by them. Some great live versions available on RUclips and this studio version, all make me feel good and in a heartbeat groove with the song. Love the bass, love the percussion, love Tim on lead vocals with the other three doing their normal stellar best. In this case, singing background vocals.
J'ai retrouvé une cassette enregistrée dans les années 80 sur ma radio préférée. Il n'y avait pas le titre, ni l'interprète. Merci à Shazam d'avoir trouvé.
Rest in Peace Tim Hauser. This was my favorite of theirs!
I saw them in concert in 87. I recall having danced in the aisles when they sang this.

this is one of my favorite songs of all time. Check out POMLAD's version of this. Outstanding! I'm sorry to hear about Tim.
+jones 4 walls Agree. Great song. The video makes it even better. They seemed to enjoy making it (except for the chef-lol).
Anyone know what this song was talking about?
