Most interesting Brazilian reissue.
Sometimes it’s easy to see why certain albums fail to reach a wider audience and sink without a trace not long after release, but why Fernando Falcão’s Brazil-only debut album ‘Memória das Águas’ wasn’t acknowledged as the masterpiece it is straight away at the time will forever remain a mystery. Maybe it’s because it came out thirteen years after Falcão had to flee his motherland after actively protesting Brazil’s military regime in 1968, not exactly making him the Brazilian household name he should have been. Chances are the fact that it was released more than two years after it was initially recorded in his new home France in 1979 didn’t help sales either. So kudos to the good people at Selva Discos for making this rare-as-hens-teeth and criminally underrated album available once again, since it needs to be out there for all to hear.
