Late Brazilian Soul Mega-Star Tim Maia Receives Rave SPIN Review Leading Up To His Would-Be 70th Birthday

New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) Tim Maia would have turned 70 September 28 were it not for a 1998 on-stage heart attack that ended his tumultuous and legendary musical life. To celebrate, record stores and radio stations around the globe will stage a series of parties, listening events and special on-air programming on the date in conjunction with Luaka Bop, the label releasing 'Nobody Can Live Forever: The Existential Soul of Tim Maia' Oct 2.
