Away from radio, TV and with live performances increasingly scarce at the

Tom Z\u00e9 is considered the most “paulista” of all Tropicalistas. He came from Bahia, but his wry urban poetry, infused with the uncomfortable sounds of the largest metropolis of South America is pure S\u00e3o Paulo. <\/p>\n

This reissue includes unseen photos, new testimonials from Tom Ze\u0301 himself and a lengthy article signed by Bento Araujo, author of the book series Lindo Sonho Delirante.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":107988,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[63,186],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-109301","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-brazil-en","7":"product_cat-tropicalisimo-en","8":"product_shipping_class-lp-doble-en","9":"pa_formato-lp-en","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"sale","14":"featured","15":"taxable","16":"shipping-taxable","17":"purchasable","18":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/109301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/107988"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=109301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=109301"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=109301"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/munster-records.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=109301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
