 | | In America, when the term MPB is used, it is a catch-all phrase for everything Brazilian--from samba to bossa nova to tropicalia, it is all MPB. |
 | | But MPB is the all-encompassing, yet very, very Brazilian, grab-bag that has been produced over the past three decades by the likes of Milton Nascimento, Chico Buarque, Edu Lobo, Ivan Lins, Caetano Veloso, Djavan, Maria Bethania, Lô Borges, Jorge Ben, Gilberto Gil, Gonzaguinha, Marisa Monte, Chico Cesar, Simone and dozens and dozens of others. |
 | | I fell in love with MPB based on the sound of the music--the melodies and the rhythms--on import albums that had no translations from the Portuguese to English. |
