Caetano and the movement he catalyzed, \u003ci\u003etropicalia\u003c\/i\u003e, urged an adoption of personal freedom in politics, music, and lifestyle. His \"rabble-rousing,\" as the government saw it, would get Caetano and his comrade Gilberto Gil arrested and exiled to London to wait out the military dictatorship. His fame increasing by the year, Caetano focused on writing songs about his homeland, returning to Brazil as a national hero-a mantle he still wears today. His most recent album, \u003ci\u003eLive in Bahia\u003c\/i\u003e, was released to international critical and popular acclaim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCaetano Veloso\u003c\/b\u003e -- musician, filmmaker, poet, and revolutionary -- was born in 1942 in Bahia, Brazil.
