Clara Nunes - Clara (LP)
Odeon 31C 062.421224, 1981 Brazil Later Clara Nunes album that in all ways stays true to her origins with good steady sambas and the odd Sunday chill ballad. Cover looks as it could have been signed by Clara herself but can not guarantee. Text inner ...

Alcione - Vamos Arrepiar (LP)
RCA Victor 103.0554, 1982 Brazil Excellent eighties album including the fine groover Mister Samba, a really nice dancefloor treat by wonderful Alcione. Her discography is worth a lot more attention than granted by most. Original RCA press in lovely E...

Alcione - Nosso Nome Resistencia (LP)
RCA 130.0015, 1987 Brazil Don't get put off by the late eighties recording date, Alcione still on top form. Bua Bua and Cancao Do Exilo my favorites but a good listen throughout. Solid EX plus plus copy with insert included.

Sergio Mendes - Love Me Tomorrow (7")
Elektra ELK 12254, 1977 Netherlands Super funky stuff by Mendes and his New Brasil '77 constellation. Love Me Tomorrow is alright but the real action starts on the flip with Mozambique. Record is EX, cover has small writing on front.

Milton Nascimento - Miltons (LP)
Columbia C 45329, 1988 United States One of my favorite later recordings by Milton Nascimento. Great take on La Bamba and the Sock Ball, Marbles just sounds like the good old days... Near mint vinyl with cover showing some edge and corner wear grading st...

Milton Nascimento - Sentinela (LP)
Ariola 201 610, 1980 Brazil Such talent Milton Nascimento and I like pretty much all his records. This late seventies recording is very laid back (great Sunday listen) but does have a few clubby tunes notably in Roupa Nova and the short but swee...

Gal Costa - Bem Bom (LP)
RCA 1100025, 1985 Brazil MPB album from Gal Costa holding some mellow bossa tracks and the odd boogie flavoured dancer. Listen to Acence O Crepusculo. Brasilian original, gatefold cover with edge wear.

Bajazzo - Fasten Seat Belts! (LP)
Amiga 8 56 324 , 1987 Germany Quality Amiga release that captures the Brazilian sound perfectly on Sambalita, a track that works well played out. Clean vinyl, light edge wear to cover.

Pascal von Wroblewsky - Swinging Pool (LP)
Amiga 8 56 215 , 1986 Germany Two decent jazz covers of Hancock's Maiden Voyage and Watermelon Man on this East German release but the winner without contenders is the Brazilian flavoured tittle track Swinging Pool. Great scat vocals.

Olodum - Do Nordeste Do Saara... (LP)
Continental 01.404.383, 1989 Brazil Interesting vocal performances with samba backing, I particularly warmed to Unindo Uma Miscigenacao and Poster Nago. Note that this copy has got some deep and audible scratches on the a-side with two tracks pretty mu...

Sergio Mendes - Sergio Mendes (LP)
A&M 75021 4937 1, 1983 United States Obviously a different style to his seventies recordings but I do like the jazz fused boogie dancer Dream Hunter and his big hitter Carneval. US original in clean EX condition, cover with cut out and light miscolouring...

Sergio Mendes - Brasil '88 (LP)

Luiz Caldas - Muito Obrigado (LP)
Polydor 837 634-1, 1988 Brazil With a cover like this and an late 80s recording date you kind of know the direction. Nice drumbreak on Ode E Adao and a good instrumental track called Fogo but unfortunately not as good as his earlier records.

James Last & Astrud Gilberto - Plus (LP)
Polydor 831 123-1, 1986 Germany It is so easy to slack off James Last due to one (or a thousand) too many easy listening recordings but he is actually a well trained jazzman, just check his early Hans Last (real name) recordings from the 50s/60s. An...

Gilberto Gil - O Eterno Deus Mu Danca (LP)
