Soy Loco por Ti America

Soy Loco por Ti America is an album by the Brazilian musician Gilberto Gil.

[8] Robert Christgau deemed the album an "effortlessly funky tour de force," writing that "Milton Nascimento and Caetano Veloso are aesthetes like, to be kind, Joni Mitchell; Gil is a pop adept like Stevie Wonder.

"[10] The New York Times wrote that Gil "embraces American grooves from the sambas and Bahian rhythms of his native Brazil to Jamaican reggae, Haitian compas, Puerto Rican salsa and James Brown funk—lending all of them the jauntiness of his band, the earthy directness of his voice and his distinctive melodic lift.

"[1] The Washington Post considered Soy Loco por Ti America to be "as sensuous and as rhythmically enticing an example of Gil's 'Tropicalism' as you're likely to find.

"[2] The Boston Globe praised the "raw sound, pointed lyrics and very sophisticated stylistic blends.
