This is Gal Costa - India (1973), for Philips. The first track gives the album title and worth the whole record, an adaptation of a Paraguayan song with magnificent arrangements by Maestro Rogerio Duprat. It is an album of extremes that brings experimental songs and closes with a traditional Bossa Nova tune, Desafinado. Several maestros take care of arrangements and a constellation of Brazilian musicians, which includes the piano of the legendary Tenorio Jr., also makes a strong contribution to India. Tracks include:
