This compilation includes songs from Ney Matogrosso's solo career from 1973 to 2003. This of course includes such unforgettable tracks as "América Do Sul," "Poema," "O Vira," "Rosa de Hiroshima," "Fala," "Balada Do Louco" and "Basta de Clamares Inocência." Matogrosso is a unique singer, both in terms of his instantly recognizable voice and the famously flamboyant style in which he presents his material. And unlike so many other legendary artists, Matogrosso's inspiration hasn't faded with age. He has, in fact, matured as an artist, and his work during the last decade has been the most well-crafted and interesting, and A Arte de Ney Matogrosso, although it puts an disproportional focus on Matogrosso's '80s and '90s output, is a very good introduction to his work.
