All Music Guide Review

This is another of the must-have classic albums by Milton Nascimento. This CD reissue of the LP released in 1975 had a digital remastering in Abbey Road studios, London. The album opens with the wonderful "Minas" (Novelli), a tribute to all sacred music traditions in the Minas Gerais state, which was deeply influential in Milton's sensibility. The album launched songs that became strongly emotional hits: "Fé Cega, Faca Amolada," "Beijo Partido," the nostalgic "Saudades Dos Aviões da Panair,," "Ponta de Areia," and "Paula E Bebeto." There's a preferential orchestral/choir treatment over the band's performances which strengthens the evocative bonds of an ancient Minas. ~ Alvaro Neder, All Music Guide
