More Samba School Music
Third time in a row, Simone brings us more samba school music. Special guest stars included Neguinho da Beija-Flor, Dedé da Portela, Dominguinhos do Estácio and Carlinhos da Caprichosos in “Rei por um Dia.” The eclectic repertoire covered rock ballads, theme sambas, and even a Brazilian cover of the U.S. classic “Too Young.” Overall, this was a weak release, very unfocussed. Again, Simone sings “Iolanda.”
