John Dougan wrote, “Elis Regina was one of the most ferociously talented singers to emerge from Brazil...she commanded the respect of Brazil’s leading songwriters, who lined up for the chance to have her record one of their songs, and for much of her short life was the country’s most popular female vocalist.” Ana de Olivia vocals, Jose Gobbo guitar, Max Beckman bass, and Jay Ferguson drums & cymbals. Visual artist Alex Puryear created original art in response to the performance.
