AMG Review of Totalmente Demais
Alvaro Neder
All Music GuideThis live album had a big hit with "Vaca Profana," re-recorded by Gal Costa and several other artists. Veloso recovers two of Joăo Gilberto's delicate jewels, "Oba-lá-Lá" and "Bim Bom"; "Pra Que Mentir," a fundamental song by the fundamental duo Noel Rosa/Vadico, with an excellent violăo arrangement; and the classics "Calúnia," "Kalú," "Solidăo," "Lealdade," and the Gardel tango "Cuesta Abaixo." "Nosso Eestranho Amor," and "Dom de Iludir" are Veloso's creations that deserve mention. This is one of the delicate albums by Veloso, singing alone with his violăo (which reaches considerable sophistication here).
