Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1919, Santos was (according to the label) “a percussionist virtuoso, composer and inventor of instruments.. such as the ‘Tamba’ (electrified bamboo drum) and the mouth berimbau whistle.” He was a very spiritual person apparently and regarded by some as a philosopher of sorts. The album was produced by himself at CBS studios with arrangements by Joppa Lins. It features poetic lyrics in a unique linguistic structure, as well as various percussive instruments and horn arrangements with samba rhythms from Latin styles. Despite the originality of his percussive sound and the influence it has had on musicians, it had little impact at the time. The album had a cult revival in the noughties and began circulating the internet in MP3 format, finally giving recognition to this unusual spiritual Bossanova masterpiece.
