Originally released in 1972, 'Clube Da Esquina' is the musical collective Milton Nascimento helped found in his home state of Minas Gerais with Lo Borges, Wagner Tiso, Beto Guedes, Nelson Angelo and Toninho Horta. This album is almost certainly the finest example of the highly creative scene that arose from such an array of talent. From the opening chords of Brazilian Jazz dance anthem "Tudo Que Voce Podia Ser" to the baroque influences of "San Vicente", via such Milton standards as "Cravo E Canela" and "Nada Sera Como Antes", this double-album seamlessly weaves folk, rock, pop, mpb, jazz and even Beatlesque string influences into something distinct and utterly beautiful.
