Well, we don't know if this actually contains a full 100 years' worth of music, but it is a very nice 4-CD set that serves as a good introduction to the music of Brazil. Put together by the same folks who did the Cuba box set, this set has a similar style that assigns a specific genre to each CD in the box – so you get one CD of bossa nova, one CD of MPB, one CD of carnaval music, and one CD of folk & traditional tunes. Our favorites are the bossa and MPB CDs, and between the two of them, you'll find a lot of great tracks that don't show up on other compilations. There's waaaay too much stuff to go into here, but for the price, this is a darn good set, with an extra booklet, and a wealth of music that will please both old fans and newcomers alike!
