The cool Rock in Rio 80's was that they invented a way of being a rock star, while blasé, Brazil. Just compare the letters, postures, attitudes. No rocker Sao Paulo, Bahia, Brasilia and Rio Grande do Sul that time reached the foot of the sophistication of a Boden, one or a Cazuza Lui. One thing means jazz, street art medium. You could feel the youth of Rio then a willingness to be New York, being Madrid, to be Almodovar, Basquiat. Thus far, of course. Only now, at least, it works differently. Has become an ecological sanctuary. It's more eclectic: not only rock, today is also the resurrection of samba, bossa nova, jazz, salsa and zouk has, brought to Santa Tereza by Angolans and the Caribbean. Forró, brought by Northeastern. Today, it's pretty easy to define pearl.
I admire the courage of those who had to do it wallowing in Punk and Heavy Metal.
