247 - Singer and songwriter Caetano Veloso paid tribute to fellow singer and songwriter Moraes Moreira, who died this Monday, the 13th, at the age of 72, a victim of acute myocardial infarction.
On Instagram, Caetano recalled the times when Moraes sang in the Campo Grande neighborhood of Salvador.
"I hear Moraes's clear diction in the masterpiece 'Chega Nego,' in the other machine-gun bursts of syllables, in Antonio Risério's words in 'Sou o carnaval' or 'Pessoal do alô,' in Fausto Nilo's in 'Bloco do Prazer' or 'Chão da Praça,' in his own cordel verses. I remember, I see, I hear. The soul cannot stop crying," wrote Caetano.
