Noel pela Primeira Vez, Noel Rosa (Caravelas) – No início da década passada, o pesquisador paulistano Omar Jubran se dedicou à tarefa hercúlea de catalogar e compilar todas as canções escritas pelo compositor Noel Rosa (1910-1937). O resultado está nessa caixa de sete CDs duplos, com 229 canções. O repertório vai das conhecidas Feitiço da Vila e Conversa de Botequim a descobertas, como Não Há Castigo, que era dada como perdida. Com sua habilidade rara em combinar melodias simples a letras inteligentes, Noel faz por merecer tanta dedicação. Nesses CDs, as canções são interpretadas pelo próprio autor e por grandes nomes da MPB da época, como Mario Reis e Aracy de Almeida.
