David Byrne also seems very influenced by you.
Yeah, besides being a good friend. We became very good friends after
he decided to present Brazilian music through collections that he did, and
he himself has recorded Brazilian songs....I think this is great. He's a
great friend
Besides David Byrne, is there another American act you can think
of that really represents the spirit of what you do?
Oh...it doesn't come to me immediately like that, a name of a band.
[Jazz] people like Herbie Hancock and Pat Metheny, people that refer to
lots of different periods of Brazilian music like the Bossa Nova and the
Tropicalia. Lots of bands, hip-hop bands, jazz bands, rock bands.
What are you listening to these days?
I listen erratically to different things....My kids come up with different stuff
from Europe, African stuff, American stuff, South American stuff. I don't
have a preference
