This is Toninho Horta - Terra dos Passaros (1979), for Odeon, presented here by a vinyl reissue sponsored by MinasCaixa, a financial institution in Minas Gerais. I think I spoke everything at the first paragraph, instead of the jazzy approach of Diamond Land, Terra dos Passaros is MPB with Toninho Horta receiving in the set a constellation of musicians, with highlights to Milton Nascimento, Hugo Fattoruso, Airto Moreira, Nivaldo Ornellas, Wagner Tiso, Raul de Souza, Novelli, Boca Livre and many others. I will try to setup a sample track at Loronix Preview Center, but I think is not necessary, this is a flawless release. Tracks include:

Great record; one of the best records that came from Minas Gerais, along with... well, perhaps the whole of Milton Nascimento's output from the beginning since late 70's :-)
spectacular lineup - would love to listen in due course - thank you!!
Thanks... This is amazing!!!!!
I always skeptical of Clube de Esquina members solo albums.... but this is really great, almost as great as a Biituca record! Actually, it sounds like what Pink Floyd would have sound like if they had musical talent...
I already fell in love with "Ceu de Brasilia" from Simone's fantastic "Face a Face", which I also discovered on this site (although I already had many tracks of that album from a compilation), and it's awesome to hear such a different version!
