The thing you have to wonder about Caetano Veloso’s 2021 album <i>Meu Coco</i>—or any album by a prominent artist cresting 80, really—is how they find the fortitude to keep going. Certainly he could ride into the sunset releasing live albums: 2004’s <i>A Foreign Sound</i> managed to cement him as both a lifelong radical (covers of Nirvana and the abrasive No Wave band DNA alongside Cole Porter and Irving Berlin) and a Beatles-like beacon for South America’s ageing but cultured upper and middle class. And his 2020 set with clarinetist Ivan Sacerdote (<i>Caetano Veloso & Ivan Sacerdote</i>) is probably the closest he got to the revolutionary quiet of bossa nova creator João Gilberto. But what a gift <i>Meu Coco</i> is. Where his last string of studio albums—2006’s <i>Cê</i>, 2009’s <i>Zii e Zie</i> and 2012’s exceptional <i>Abraçaço</i>—made him sound young, punky and lean, <i>Meu Coco</i> gives you his full breadth: old-fashioned but playful orchestral folk (“Meu Coco”), modern hybrids of Brazilian dance and electronic music (“Não Vou Deixar”), reflections on the past (“GilGal” [if you know, you know]) and the present (“Enzo Gabriel”, which he says was influenced by learning what was, at the time, Brazil’s most popular boys’ name). The literal translation for <i>meu coco</i> is “my coconut”; the colloquial one is “my head” or “my mind”. Here, he shows you his all.
