This is MPB-4 / Quarteto em Cy - Cobra de Vidro (1976), for Philips. I don't know if our Quarteto em Cy consultant Mr. G. has Cobra de Vidro among his favorites, if not, I think Mr. G. should consider as one of the best from now on. Cobra de Vidro has several different situation, such as: the best Because (Lennon / McCartney) rendition I have ever heard, two wonderful "instrumental" songs using voices as instruments, Noites Cariocas (Jacob do Bandolim) and Fuga (Heitor Villa Lobos) and a Guarania with Spanish lyrics Me Gustan Los Estudiantes (Violetta Parra). I don't have idea of the popularity and availability of this album in Brazil and worldwide, perhaps this should be a wonderful surprise to Loronixers. Tracks include:
01 - Nada Será Como Antes (Milton Nascimento / Ronaldo Bastos)
02 - A Estrada e o Violeiro (Sidney Miller)
03 - Guararapes (Dori Caymmi / Paulo César Pinheiro)
04 - Noites Cariocas (Jacob do Bandolim)
05 - 5/6/65 (Luis Cláudio Ramos) Instrumental
06 - Não Existe Pecado ao Sul do Equador (Chico Buarque / Ruy Guerra)
07 - O Cio da Terra (Milton Nascimento / Chico Buarque)
08 - Me Gustan Los Estudiantes (Violeta Parra)
09 - Oriente (Gilberto Gil)
10 - Because (John Lennon / Paul McCartney)
11 - Amor Amor (Sueli Costa / Cacaso)
12 - Fuga (Vocal) (Villa-Lobos)
