In 1966 Pierre Barouh collaborated (as lyricist) with Francis Lai on the score for the Palme d'Or winning movie Un Homme Et Une Femme. He also starred in the movie alongside Anouk Aimée, who he later married. Barouh was a world music enthusiast who had made a film about Bossa Nova with Baden Powell. He bought a mill in the Vendée where he established a recording studio and the the Saravah record label. Sarvah was all about eclecticism and released work by African, folk, blues, and French pop acts. This is a compilation of rarities from 1966-1980.

Brazilian...

Following on from the Legião Urbana post below- Joao Kartoshka has posted links to all the LPs on Rolling Stone Brazil's 100 best albums list- Samba, Bossa Nova, metal, hip-hop, psych.
Hats off to Joao.

Legião Urbana-Legião Urbana(1985) Dois (1986)

Dado Villa-Lobos – guitar
Renato Russo – vocals, acoustic guitar, keyboards, bass
Renato Rocha – bass
Marcelo Bonfá – drums and percussion

I'm going to walk right into the trap now (it's a habit I've noticed) of describing an artist from outside Britain or the USA as being their equivalent of some British or American act.
So, Legião Urbana are Brasilia's version of some generic C86 band- popping bass, jangly, stuttering guitars, lovely soulful vocals. Hang on- they actually remind me more of The Connells...
Here are their first two albums.

Brazilian music isn't all about samba and bossa nova, but never fails to reflect the dizzying eclecticism of that nation's culture.

Sigh...

Gal Costa & Caetano Veloso- Domingo (1967)

I don't normally post links to other peoples' uploads, but Joao Kartoshka recently posted this gem on his curious bossa nova/ retro/ football / chess blog (?!).
Спасибо, Joao...
