Description

Maria da Graça Costa Penna Burgos (Salvador, September 26, 1945), known as Gal Costa, is a Brazilian singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.


She was elected as the seventh greatest voice in Brazilian music by Rolling Stone Brasil magazine in 2012.


In 1973 he recorded the album "India", directed by Gil, which brings the hits "India" (JA Flores - MO Guerreiro - version José Fortuna) and "Volta" (Lupicínio Rodrigues), and from this album he makes another very successful show, also directed by Waly Salomão, "India". That same year he participates in the Phono 73 festival, which generated three albums, where Gal successfully recorded the songs "Trem das onze" (Adoniran Barbosa) and "Oração de Mãe Menininha" (Dorival Caymmi), in a duet with Maria Bethânia. In 1974 Gal recorded the album "Cantar", directed by Caetano Veloso, which brings the hits "Barato total" (Gilberto Gil), "Flor de maracujá" and "até Quem sei" (both by João Donato and Lysia Enio) and " The frog "(João Donato and Caetano Veloso). This album generated the show "Cantar", which was not well received by the audience of Gal, because it is a very smooth record, contrasting with the strong image that the singer had created from the tropicalist movement.


Gal Costa is admittedly bisexual, and over the years his affective relationships with anonymous and famous women became known, among them singer Marina Lima and actress Lúcia Veríssimo.


Around a long time she became friends with the sisters Sandra and Dedé (Andreia) Gadelha, future wives of the composers Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso, respectively.

Notes

This first pressing comes with a credits paper insert (later pressings have this information printed inside the gatefold sleeve).
Some copies came wrapped in a blue plastic bag with "Gal Costa Índia" printed in black (the solution found to continue selling the record as the military dictatorship at the time had censored the picture cover) - see pictures.
