20 Palavras ao Redor do Sol is the debut album from iconic Brazilian singer-songwriter Catia de Franca, and it still sounds quietly extraordinary.
Out of print since its original release in 1979, this is an essential record for anyone with a love for MPB. Produced by Ze Ramalho, it carries a distinct psychedelic edge, wrapped in a warm, folk-led sound.
It’s the kind of album that reveals more with each listen, easy to return to and hard to forget. A vital rediscovery from one of Brazil’s great voices.
