Gilberto Gil
Saturday, July 5, 2008
The Fillmore Jackie Gleason Theatre, Miami Beach
Playing to an audience mostly formed by his many Brazilian fans,
Gilberto Gil closed his six-city U.S. tour with a two-hour set
designed as a journey through the history of his country's music,
opening with a samba-inflected tune that ended with a snippet of
The Rolling Stone's "Satisfaction," which set the tone for the rest
of the set.
Gil played with the same six-piece band that has followed him
throughout the tour; there were no elaborate stage settings
expect for a few lights strategically placed between the musicians.
His voice was slightly hoarse, clearly a result that came from the
strain brought by his previous stops around the country,
"Miami is very close to us in Brazil for many reasons," Gil said in
English as he greeted his fans before going into "Banda Larga
Cordel," the title track from his latest disc of the same name. He
then talked about the origins of samba and how enslaved
Africans and Native Brazilians came together to create the genre
that pretty much identifies Brazil abroad, and exemplified that
with “Andar Com Fé," a popular tune from his '8os catalogue and
“Formosa," an obscure tune by guitarist Baden Powell and the
poet Vinicius de Morais, two pioneers of the bossa nova era.
