Mixed bag of sambas but mostly funky and dancefloor friendly. Highlights are the fine cover of Martin Cerere and the always popular Ilu Aye. Softest scuff on record, cover is clean EX.

Excellent Tropical Music compilation by Milton Nascimento with highlights in Filho, Anima and the killer title track Noticias Do Brasil. German only pressing in lovely EX shape, cover has light shelf wear. Text inner...

Brilliant Bossa Nova and Samba Jazz on this German only RCA pressing from '76. Samba Am Berlin and Aquarela Do Brasil are both great but start with Samba, Viola E Eu introducing Heloisa Raso on vocals. Blissful! Soft ...

Wonderful recording from Rio De Janeiro with Waldir Azevedo as special guest. For some reason only ever saw a release in Germany. Samba, jazz and bossa nova pave the way with a good blend of own compositions and cover...

Brilliant mellow bossa jazz release exclusively in Germany on the Intercord sister label Xenophon. Great cover of Berimbau on here and his own Joao Da Caoa Preta is really fine too.

One of many useful Trilha Nacional Da Novela recordings, this one with Rita Lee and Roberto, Caetano Veloso, Erasmo Carlos and more. Start with the smooth jazz instrumental A Ilha by Leo Gandelman.

Recommended telenovela soundtrack with a fine mix of samba, forro and bossa. Treats on offer by Ze Ramalho, Moraes Moreira, Fafa and Alceu Valenca just for starters. Brazilian original on Som Livre in straight EX shap...

Kind of 'greatest hits' album by Rio's samba head José Bezerra da Silva. Very funky affair with no dull moments in sight. Check Pega Eu.

Madlib fans will recognise this immediately from his Flight to Brazil Medicine Show mixtape. Musically back to back heat by Tom Jobim, Caetano Veloso and Ary Barroso plus you get the Cruzeiro Airlines captain commenti...

Elizabeth Santos Leal de Carvalho or Beth as we know her teaming with a number of prolific samba artists from Rio. Essential for the Nelson Cavaquinho collaboration Deus Me Fez Assim but Virada and Gorjear Da Passarad...

Can't claim to have met Beth Carvalho but am sure she is great fun. Almost all her records picture nothing but good vibes and spirits. Musically it does not sound any different, happy days in Rio de Janeiro. Brazilian...

Never seen before album output by Samba Som Sete who is a famous samba grouping haling from Rio de Janeiro. Pretty consitent affair with highlight in Se Liga, No Terreiro and Quando A Galinha Criar Dente. Lovely EX co...

From the cover you'd be tempted to assume these dudes play pool rather than samba but judging by the music you know where their hearts at. Cover is close to EX, record has surface marks but playgrade is solid VG+

Not all modern samba records turns out positive but Marquinhos Sata pulls of a nice set for RCA with Roberto Ribeiro and Bezerra Da Silva joining the fun. Copy down graded to VG+ due to a surface line on a-side but pl...

The better album by Marquinhos Sata to my ear with Escorregar Nao E Cair and O Lugar great melodic vocal sambas. Record is strong EX close to NM and copy has insert included. Cover with ring wear.

French crossover chanson with a nice melodic slightly Brazilian touch on Samba Cafe. Disc is almost NM, cover slightly used.

Back in stock! Very rare 45 by Evaldo Montenovo with best two tracks from his debut album. Great uptempo bossa version of Tristeza and a fine flipside with Funky Experience. Record is EX, cover little spotted at front.

Seldom seen four track EMI EP release by samba queen Clara Nunes. Highlights in Congada and notably Derramando Lagrimas. Record is EX, not far from NM, cover has small scribble on front but still looks nice.

Wonderful samba EP by Beth Carvalho including the excellent 1800 Colinas and Vovo Chica. Brazilian original in picture cover, record is clean EX, cover with writing on front.

The ultimate Samba Joia crooner Benito Di Paulo with some of his best in Maria Baiana Maria and Meu Maior Afeto. Rare Copacabana EP in like new condition, removable stickers on label.
