Nasza Basia Kochana - Nasza Basia Kochana (LP)

Paulinho Da Costa - Sunrise (LP)
Pablo 2312-143, 1982 Germany Completely underrated affair by famed Brazilian percusionist that I belive would sit well with disco heads. Check The Groove that does everything the tittle suggest. Killer stuff in NM condition.

Raul de Souza - Sweet Lucy (LP)
Capitol 1C 064-85 208, 1977 Germany Not a rare record but does not mean it is not good. George Duke at the production knobs and he brought in Patrice Rushen, Embamba, Ndugu and the most of the ususal suspects. Some discofied fusion tracks on here, the f...

Gilberto Gil - Realce (LP)
WEA 250038-1, 1979 Germany Back in stock! This has to be the best Gilberto Gil album from his late seventies recording period. I like the title track a lot but the real deal is the fantastic Toda Menina Baiana. The nicest NM copy we have had.

Maria Creuza - A Bahia (LP)
EMI 2C 06496240, 1972 France Rare and essential Maria Creuza release with what I rate as one of her finest moments in Ossain, a seriously deep Brasilian vocal jazz piece. The album also holds other recommeded treats in De Donde Vienes and Que Loc...

Maria Bethânia - Ciclo (LP)
Philips 814 855-1, 1983 Brazil Completely off the radar offering here by Veloso's less famous sister. She kicks off with a typical mellow MPB 80s sound (enjoyabe but a little dull at times) but then drops the killer Rio De Janeiro that has all the ...
