All genres of Brazilian music such as Bossa Nova, Tropicalia, Latin Jazz, stem from Carmen Miranda. This edition is the unadulterated Carmen Miranda, concentrating on her triumphant Brazilian years, collecting together the charming, beautifully crafted vintage sambas, chorus and marches that established her fantastic reputation and made her a national hero. Her worldwide credibility and influence remain enormous. This is evidenced by the film documentary 'Bananas is my business', which was released this year on DVD, and by Ruy Castro’s best selling new biography 'Carmen'.
