Tom Zé, a key figure in Brazil's Tropicalia movement, stands out as its most iconic voice. Emerging from Bahia, his music, rooted in São Paulo's urban sounds, blends wry poetry with experimental tones that capture the essence of Brazil's largest city. In 1990, David Byrne curated Brazil Classics Vol.40 - The Best of Tom Zé, featuring five songs from Zé's earlier works, which introduced his unique style to international audiences. Reflecting on this album, Zé shared that it reignited his passion for music, helping him rediscover the joy of creation after years of feeling unmotivated.
