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 ...

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...

Although recorded in 1990 this is a highly recommended recording and a rare pick as well. Nice mix of deep, spiritual vibes and lovely floating MPB. Stunning condition, cover with sticker

Great and funky affair by Francisco Jose Itamar de Assumpcao mixing everything from clubby boogie tunes to traditonal samba and even a bit of reggae here on offer. Like new copy with full text inner sleeve included.

Brilliant mellow bossa release exclusively out in Germany on the Intercord sister label Xenophon. Not an easy find either, promo copy in flawless condition.

An amazing line up in Orexis, Martin Kolbe, Juray Galan, Jose Rogerio and many more. A fantastic double album with several 'exclusive' takes only available on this Xenophon release. Anyone with an ear for Bossa, Folk ...

An all folky affair but could work well in alternative mixes with some smashing drums thrown in on top. Plenty of open vocal snipppets and clean guitar picks as well for production. Rare original in very decent VG+ co...

Really enjoyed the Danca Das Gaivotas album by Jose Rogerio but this one is even better in my books. The ambient O Farol e a Mariposa is a true beauty and the vocal piece Carregamento makes you wonder why Jose did not...

Great and untapped 80s MPB / Boogie by the Brazilian femme fatale. Joga Fora and Felix are both good but Olhos Coloridos is in simple terms fantastico. Give it a listen. Brazilian original with solid EX vinyl grade ap...

Roupa Nova are hugely popular in Brazil and desite being a bit popish at times some of their tracks have a soulful feel. Bem Simples is a fine mellow piece and I really dig the vocal harmonies on Cancao De Verao. Rare...

Such a fine album that should appeal to Brazil, Jazz and Balearic fans alike. Caso Serio and La No Ceu stand out but obviously don't expect any poor playing by the master himself. The jazzy instrumental piece Hotel De...

Superstar bossa nova guitarist and Vinicius De Moraes partner in crime here with a brilliant varied album ranging from traditional Brazilian folk to uptempo clubby jazz-funk. Check Outra Historia. Rare and recommended...

Wonderful bossa nova with Maria Toledo and Luis Bonfa in perfect harmony. Stereo original from '67 in lovely shape, clean EX vinyl, cover has a ugly looking sticker tear on front and ring wear.

Deluxe Verve 2xLP compilation with so many good tracks it is a hard choice where to start. Chilled bossas for Sunday morning and clubby jazzers for Saturday night. Check her Light My Fire version, really dig that sax ...

Want some of the rarest and best Elis Regina tracks from her Elis Especial, Como & Porque and In London albums without splashing out the hundreds of euros they will set you back here is a great alternative. Original B...

Seldom seen album release by Ney Matogrosso with his typical diverse soundscape ranging from mid tempo samba over melodic prog and MPB. Check his cover of Rio de Janeiro for a feel. Clean EX conditon with cover a litt...

Nice modern samba touch on this 6th volume in the Aquarela Brasileira series. One can not claim Emilio Santiago was on the lazy side of things with so many recordings to his name. Check Peguei Um Ita No Norte. Clean B...

A must for any Bossa Nova fan. Wonderful live setting with both Joao and Prado really putting on a show. Plus you get the amazing duet with Joao Gilberto and Rita Lee on Jou Jou Balangandas. Record in lovely shape, co...

So much good can be said about Caetano Veloso. I am finding it hard not liking all his recordings. On Estrangeiro he is creative in styles with upbeat MPB, boogie but still finding space for two wonderful chilled bos...

Good feel summer samba vibes from first to last groove on this Brazilian original by Rio's famous Martinho Da Vila. Gatefold cover in VG+ condition with little dirt on front, record in strongest EX shape.
