This is the first studio album from Chico Buarque since bad diagnosis in 1968. For older fans Chico Buarque de Hollanda vol3 will put a massive smile accross your face. Chico Buarque de Hollanda vol3 carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. To me Chico Buarque is the best band ever.
Once you hear Retrato em branco e preto, you will listen to it over and over. Januria is the most memorable and gorgeous. This is the most melodic ambitious and satisfying track in Chico Buarque de Hollanda vol3. Carolina is, without a doubt, my favorite song, ever. This track is nearly perfect if not perfect. Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right. at pensei - Chico Buarque first major hit. Sem fantasia actually sounds so joyous, that you can practically see a smile on Chico Buarque’s face. I was truly moved when I heard At 2 feira. Only one song from Chico Buarque de Hollanda vol3 named Funeral de um lavrador really got me. The sound in Tema para morte e vida severina is really warm and Chico Buarque’s signature voice is still very much present.
