Thanks for turning us onto this “white album,” where the first strums of the first song could have easily led us to a sped up “I am the walrus” but went somewhere far trippier. Comparing this version of “aquas de março” with the version released a year later (1974) by tom jobim (the song’s writer) and elis regina, they both have their “murmurs of divinity,” but the time dancing on the lyric pacing and the chording of the comping (more murmurs of divinity) on the white album simply kill me. Thank you Beta!
