{"product_id":"tim-bernardes_prudencia-praga_2025_mdl","title":"Prudencia + Praga","description":"The double single \"Prudência \/ Praga\" brings together two songs by Tim Bernardes, performed by Maria Bethânia and Alaíde Costa. Despite his rock and roll roots in São Paulo, Bernardes here delivers two 1950s-style sambas, inspired by the sentimental dramas of Lupicínio Rodrigues and the gravity of Nelson Cavaquinho. This blend gives the record a classic yet raw, almost infernal, quality. \"Prudência\" explores the conflict between passion and control in the mind of a romantic bohemian. Composed for Bethânia's album Noturno, her version became a moving bolero. Seeing the artist sing it live, with the audience singing along, deeply moved Bernardes. Caetano Veloso even believed it was a rediscovered old classic, the ultimate compliment for the songwriter. \"Praga,\" co-written with Erasmo Carlos for Alaíde Costa, takes the form of a venomous cabaret samba, telling the story of a woman's anger as she leaves a drunkard. The recording blends percussion and explosive backing vocals from Tulipa, Maria Beraldo, and Luiza Lian. As for \"Prudência,\" the single version comes from live sessions for Ensaio, in the 70s, raw and spontaneous, which superseded the studio version. A rock'n'roll 45-rpm single of sambas, released without artifice, where prudence and passion clash unfiltered.","brand":"Tim Bernardes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55583974949208,"sku":null,"price":23992930.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0850068258437_65175265-b39b-45d1-b512-d6440b78d00f.jpg?v=1760727786","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/tim-bernardes_prudencia-praga_2025_mdl","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
