Critic's Review
Alvaro Neder, All Music Guide
This is a posthumous compilation of some works by Elis Regina, put together under no evident concept other than throwing together some songs composed by the mineiros of the Clube da Esquina, mixed with other composers. It has songs by the dance/pop composer Guilherme Arantes (launched by her), a track by Adoniran Barbosa where she is featured, "Tiro ao Álvaro," a hit in her voice; songs by Gilberto Gil ("Rebento," "Se eu quiser falar com Deus"), and songs by the mineiros Lô Borges, Márcio Borges, Ronaldo Bastos, Luiz Guedes, Thomas Roth, Milton Nascimento, Fernando Brant, including "Vento de Maio," "O trem azul," "Nova estação," "O que foi feito devera." A good album, several hits, good interpretations, but lacks the emotional impact of an album released by the artist himself.
