Another great video of Novos Baianos playing live! There is such a great mixture of old and new, acoustic and electric. This was the forward-looking music of the early 70s in Brazil which added the sound of psychedelic rock to the already rich music of Bahia. By this time they were all living in a commune in Rio, playing music and football, hence "Novos Bainos F.C."!

Nara Leão - Insensatez
A melancholic offering from Nara Leão, the first lady of bossa nova. Fascinating hearing her talk about the bossa scene back then; so much of this music was made before it reached the wider world. What a beautiful voice as well!
