2 LP Brazil Classics 1: Beleza Tropical was Luaka Bops first release, and in many ways it started the trend to compile music from other places. Heres what the guy who put this retrospective together has to say about it: Wow when did this first come out? 1989? Over 30 years ago! I listened to some of the songs yesterday and, well, they hold up, theyre truly timeless songs. Beauty can be pointed. -David Byrne, March 2021 TRACKLISTING A I.
