Clube Da Esquina

Ik vind de stemmen wat te hoog gegrepen, letterlijk. Toch heeft het wel ooit iets weg van filmmuziek wat het wel interssant maakt, maar in het algemeen niet zo mijn ding. **

It was fine-ish. Way too long. Music itself didn't really wow me. I checked out a few times.

Interesting album

An exquisite album... that's not for me. But I bet it's for you, so check it out.

Weer een clubje waarvan ik het lidmaatschap liever laat verlopen.

Lekker gezellig op een zaterdagochtend. Of op een feestje. Eenmalig.

Didn’t get into this one - one of the least impressive of the Latin records I’ve had so far.

not for me

Don't mind a bit of Latin but didn't find any of these songs grabbed me.

It is a fine album. Songs not in English are difficult for me to enjoy, but some songs did have a groovy beat.

I'm apparently not feeling the love today. My reviews here are not about the artists or the amount of work and effort put into this. It's just a mood of wanting to listen to something... This album would be great if I was sipping on a drink in the sun on the beach, I think.

I think it's tough to be successful with a vocal heavy foreign language album. The music is okay, but generally uninteresting. Not much that actually is catching and worthy of listening to own it's own. A little tiresome by the end.

i didn’t gain anything from this album, i can totally see why people would enjoy it and i think it’s very fun and i can definitely see how it would be influential however i just didn’t find it totally appealing? but it was interesting.

How do I even rate this...? It's music and he's definitely a talented musician, but there's nothing here that's enjoying for me. I can imagine I'd listen to this at some bomb-ass Brazillian joint and I'd love it for the experience, but listening to it between writing and completing my TPS reports, it does nothing except agitate me. Sorry Milton.

Best Song: Cravo E Canela. Dance-y and uplifting. Worst Song: Me Deixa Em Paz. Without knowing the content of the lyrics, this feels like a religious proclamation that I needn't be a part of. Overall: A bit of a fever dream, although sadly one that went on long enough for me to want some medicine.

Well I wasn't expecting this. Reading Wiki and looking at reviews I'm piecing this together I think. Airy and easy listening, floaty and mellow I don't really need to know the words as I'm sure they match the music. I don't dislike it but there are other Brazilian artists in the 60's that have real integrity and punch. I'm thinking the Beatles are an influence? Maybe the French pop artists from the 60's too? Musically quite accomplished- but as others have noted the production isn't great (it's a bit tinny and flat).

Instruments good…. Vocals ick

Not blown away by this

Not bad, relaxing, but couldn't listen to the whole thing

Loved the first song. Rest was alright

Liked the first song a lot. Was an ok album

Lamb chops

Meh, not my style

Nieprzyzwoicie mdły folk

Bored so bored.

Couldn't get into this one. Just didn't really dig it. Terribly sorry.

Bit dull

First Listen. I wish I understood Portuguese because I think the lyrics have to be as amazing as the melodies. This album has such an amazing, calming presence. This is one of those albums I would have never listened to in my life. So I am grateful that it is on this list so I did get the chance to hear it. I can't wait to listen to more of it in the future. My rating may seem low for now, but I know this album will only go up as I listen to it more. 2.5/5

I didn't like it. Could not get into at all.

hard pass

Nice background music for a restaurant, maybe. Don't remember anything about this - instantly forgotten.

Ok, but it didn't jump out at me

Tudo Que Você Podia Ser

Leuk voor op de achtergrond

I want to draag espadrilles en dans met moeders op deze jams

Not really my thing BUT this track is excellent https://open.spotify.com/track/2eDUcjS6SSDJd6Rcx4TFkd?si=plPDOFp1RwO4UYZEP9zapw

Dakle šteta mi je što se ovaj album evo baš sada potrefio kada je mutavo, hladnjikavo/mrazovno vrijeme. Album kod kojeg sam vidio dosta praisea, i bome visokih ocijena. Krenuvši sa albumom, odmah sam skužio da to nije za ovo vrijeme, da je ovo ipak nekako tro(pički), sunčani, ljetni album. Zato sam preslušao sve jednom, nisam htio uništavati taj feeling, pa ću svakako album poslušati kada vrijeme bude ljetnije/toplije, jer vjerujem da će tada album pasati kao budali šamar jer ima predispozicije. Nema mi ni veze što je na španjolskom/portugalskom. Pa tako da ovaj rejting ništa zasad ne znači dok ne dođe vrijeme za pravo slušanje ovog albuma. Lijep pozdrav. ?/5

I didn't enjoy this album very much, but I read about it and I understand its importance in the history of Brazilian music, so nice to see it get some attention. For my own musical preferences, not my thing.

Dont care for this....it's not really jazzy either

Zweitbestes Latino Album. (Bin nicht mal sicher, ob die Zuordnung stimmt) reicht für zwei sterne

Meh.

Cantautor brasileño, con toques rítmicos propios del país, estilo bastante parecido, algún toque más guitarrero en alguna canción. No me ha gustado mucho

Er jo artig med populærmusikk fra brasil, men dette ble litt langtekkelig for min del

not my thing

I can appreciate this but I can't say it was an enjoyable listen to me.

It was fine. Won’t listen again.

Enjoyed some of the melodies.

good sound but hard to get into personally without knowing the language

I gave it a go but it’s not my thing. A pleasant singing voice but I couldn’t get into it. 2stars

Melkeen pääsin loppuun asti. Olisin helposti voinut kuolla ilman kuulematta tätä levyä ollenkaan

its not meh but i wouldnt listen to it again its okay i guess

I wanted to be open minded but this was an absolute drag

Meh

I don’t like albums in other languages because lyrics are really important to me. This for sure wasn’t the worst foreign album I’ve had. The melodies were fine and the singing was ok. It was over an hour long though and is something I would never want to listen to again.

Absolutely not for me

Nå slags brasilianskt nånting. Meh.

I just don't have the patience or open mindedness for this.

not really my thing

Vervelend op de achtergrond

Kinda repetitive. This list is making me hate ethnic music.

This is just annoying as all get out. I actively hate it. I could not get through this very bossanova nightmare.

Just loads of soft Portuguese singing that does nothing for me. Ten minutes was sufficient, twenty was plenty, thirty excessive. As I came up on the the hour I was more than ready for it to be over.

Despite there being a nice moment or two, this album is doing absolutely nothing for me. While I am not taking away its influence and obvious quality, I was not taken even for a moment. I think this has to do with my general dislike of Latin music, or rather, lack of appreciation. Still, all on me, doubt I'll ever find Latin music I enjoy, but that won't stop me from trying. Love the Latin culture though!

Warm, lightly sun-dazed arrangements built from soft electric pianos, chiming guitars, airy percussion, and mellow horn and string flourishes carry this Música popular brasileira album like a leave falling slowly to the ground in a summer breeze. Interesting to look at for a short Moment in time and intensely boring listening for Long periods of time.

This is said to be influential to Brazilian music. If so then I guess I won't like Brazilian music.

I’m not really a bossanova person, it’s not bad it just doesn’t really do anything for me

Bah

Totalno nepoznano. Do zdaj zelo chill. Tretji komad, "O Trem Azul" me rahlo spomne na letošnjo portugalsko evrovizijsko, but could just be the portuguese language. Mah, skoz mi je tak vajb. Ful enih dolgočasnih komadov, vmes kšn bl poskočn, in to je to. Ok, ta, "Um Girassol Da Cor De Seu Cabelo", se je zj prot koncu vsaj mal razgibal. Mogoč bi blo boljš, če bi razumela kaj pojejo? Tko mi je pa sam zelo bland. Preprost ni zame tole. And that's ok.

Nope

Not for me

Second day on trot I’ve been served with a tick box selection ensuring that this list covers every possible Country and culture etc. This one though is a bit better than the last one which was so bad I’ve already forgotten what it was and erased it from my memory. And likewise tomorrow I will have forgotten this. Very negative I know as the authors of the list will have made a real effort to include this album to educate us all but there are bounds to how far my musical appreciation stretches and try as I might this ‘un doesn’t stretch far. 1/5 6/7/25

nope. sounds like some kind of outdoor church music or something. No thanks.

This album is just not for me. It is depressing for some reason.

Yeah, no. I am positive I checked no foreign language albums but here we are. I wish I knew what they were saying. 1/5

1. tudo - 1.5 2. caiz - 1.5 3. azul - 2 4. zaidaz - 1 5. zigana - 1 6. canela - 1 7. crucez - 1 8. cabelo - 1 9. vicente - 1.5 10. eztrelaz - 1 11. ezquina - 1.5 12. janela - 1 13. paz - 1.5 14. povoz - 1.5 15. bandeiraz - 1 16. zol - 1 17. deuz - 0 18. lilia - 1 19. trem - 1.5 20. antez - 1 21. nazcer - 1.5

Nice rhythms through out the album but the songs didn't catch my ear and the combination with me not understanding the language made me skip a lot. Not the best sign when listening to an album.

Bad

Nice background music, but not my bag

I just can't get into the whole bossanova thing

I always struggle with foreign language music. Lyrics are important to me. I found the album boring and receptive. It was a very hard listen. I am going to need a good album tomorrow to pick me up from the last 3-4 days

No habla

Das ist nicht die Musik, die ich entdecken möchte.

Por favor bordón de fallar muchos gracias de fallar gracias The most boring Spanish music

No

No Bueno

Did not listen

No mas

Boring production holds back my enjoyment of this album

Maybe good for some background at a Brazilian restaurant but not a commute. I was trying to think if the songs were in english would I like it more and after completion...No. It's nice but too sleepy.

There have been a handful of foreign language albums thus far on the list. Some have been a nice treat. Clube Da Esquina did nothing to make me think this belonged on the list. I'm sure this is influential for Brazilian music but this is a skip from me. 0.80 stars

Did not listen. Not my style

I have no reference point for this sound. That being said, it was pleasantly calming to listen to. Not gonna jump on board with this genre tho. Prolly won't listen to more by choice.

I couldn't struggle through this entire album....I tried.... I would rather get a root canal.

Ei filtteriä, vain juustoa. Olipa Nuvem Cigana epämiellyttävä.

Not my thing

Not my type of music

Nope

¿Pero esto qué es?¿Me invento unas letras y me invento unas melodías y las uno, tenga ritmo o no?Un 1 en toda regla.

Cantano in portoghese blueh

Had to stop listening, couldnt understand

Not my thing, music ok, not big on singer’s voice

Turns out folk music in a foreign language doesn't help

af. dos temas y medio bien. el de girasol

Why in portuguese

Not my cup of tea. Not knocking it for those that vibe with it but I'd rather have a colonoscopy than listen to this again.

Honestly, this album always had an uphill battle with all the lyrics being in Portuguese. But all that put aside, this simply isn't the type of music that moves me. Favorite track: Clube Da Esquina No 2

No Bueno. Only got through a couple songs before I had to stop

Not greAt. Sounded like a Latin Ior Portuguese Beatles just not good. Won’t listen again

Brazilian Beatles, but not good

I don’t really understand Brazilian or Portuguese and didn’t find this album too interesting. 0.0/10

Føles feil å rate. Helt feil sjanger for meg.

Non English. Not interested.

Nope, zoete liftmuziek

??? This doesn’t belong on the list. It is like music someone brought home from a summer holiday with fond memories, but it makes no sense to anyone else.

not my cup of tea.

La première écoute ne s'est pas faite dans un bon environnement, je n'ai pas aimé. J'ai décidé de donné une 2e chance dans un environnement plus calme. C'est mieux, mais ce n'est pas égale et beaucoup trop long, quoi que ça va avec l'époque je crois. Il y a quelques moments musicaux intéressant sur l'album comme la fin de Um Girassol Da Cor Do Seu Cabelo avec l'orchestration.

forgettable.

This was a waste of my time and money. FEEL MY WRATH, MILTON -YOU CUNT.

I'd never heard of Milton Nascimento, on first listen it felt to me like this was on the list purely to up the quota of Latin albums. I've since done some Googling and he does seem to be very highly regarded, Rolling Stone voted this album the 7th best Brazilian album of all time but it's not for me. It's really bland. It's got none of the exciting party elements I would generally associate with Latin music. Instead it is infused with the dullest elements of jazz and prog. And if there's one thing this list has taught me, it's that jazz and prog are not my bag baby.

english only pls

...

I felt like i was in Viva Brazil

boring

Terminé un poco enojado de escuchar este disco la verdad.

1.5

Mitäs erikoista tässä nyt sit oli?

In a language I don't know and genre I don't usually gravitate towards - good to get something interesting for day 2. Digging it though, it's calming so far.

didn't understand a word of it
