if you have a Tower Records close to you, they have the best selection on Brazilian music. Speaking of Caetano Veloso, i believe he is the best "pop" artist right now. To introduce yourself to his music probably you should get "Livro" and "Noites do Norte Vivo". To give you an example in an american context about him, he could be Bob Dylan, Michael Jackson, Bruce springsteen. and David Byrne roll into one.
Taste of Brazil.
Anyone here digs on Brazilian funk and jazz?
I was stunned by Velosso and wonder where I should research further. Also have Flora Purim and Airto albums...
Despite understanding no word in Portugese I still enjoy the great music.
