Does not get much better than Caetano Veloso tackling a Jorge Ben composition. Flispide with Pecado Original from the Dama Do Lotacao film is not bad either but little hard to challenge the quality of Amante Amado. Lo...

Slept on Veloso record with some fine mellow bossa nova moments but also holds a fantastic down-tempo bomb in Depois Que O Ile Passar. Take a listen.

Brazillian original 1st pressing with gimmix cover and inner sleeve. Musically Veloso just always delivers quality MPB and this is no different. Check out Un Canto De Afoxe Para O Bloco Do Ile. Wax has paperscuffs onl...

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...

Top condition Caetano Veloso record that mixes traditional bossa and MPB but also holds one strong samba track with some fine electro backing that would work great in a cosmic styled mix. Brazilian original in unplaye...

Excellent 80s MPB recording by Veloso that includes a handful of solid Bossa tunes but I had to run with the cosmic tingled Pulsar on the soundclip. Great track that has potential for experimental DJs and collectors a...

Fascinating how someone in 67 can pull off sounds like these... Fair enough, these guys turned pioneers in electronics and where at the forefront on experimentalism going strong for 30 years plus plus. US original wi...

Slept on 80s latin killer from Cal Tjader. Cover indicated fire and trust me there is plenty of heat on this one. Poncho Con Dos Amigos is 6 min of pure percussion and bongo battle plus there is a solid cover fo Coltr...

Compilation from 1987 with many of Cal Tjader's best compositions. Mambo Macumba, Ritmo Africano and much much more. Mongo Santamaria & Willie Bobo who both started their respective careers with Cal Tjader are joining...

Seriously slept on Cal Tjader recording with Clare Fisher involved. Where Is Love is a nice clubby tune, wonderful oriental vibes on Reza but check the tittle track, one of the best midtempo latin jazz funk pieces I h...

One of his rarest and best Verve recordings with Herbie Hancock, Ray Barretto, Mel Lewis and other top personel involved. Holds the frequently sampled Django and top jazz dancers in Moanin and Sweet Honeybee. Note tha...

Very early latin jazz recording by Cal Tjader backed by a young Willie Bobo and Mongo Santamaria. All pretty mellow stuff good for a Sunday afternoon of chilling. Later pressing with blue / white Fantasy label.

Cal Tjader gone funky on Mamblues later to feature as alternative take with Bernard Purdie on the Fritz The Cat soundtrack. Instant floorfiller. More clubby latin fun here though on the upbeat Bye Bye Love and This Ca...

Illest Dusty Fingers jazz fusion breakbeat all over this Capitol release. Everything on here is worth a listen but the title track Sky Island is worth the money alone any day. Clean wax, cover weak EX with little ring...

Groovy funk 45 by one of New Jersey's finest. Always was a popular spin. US original with lines/marks that causes a click here and there. Reduced price.

Minty white vinyl limited edition boogie banger by the California Executives. Plenty of action both for the modern soul and funk collectors here with I Can't Forget You and How Long. Great album in great collectors co...

Ronald Dudley laying down some fine vocals on this funky stepper courtesy of The California Executives and Greg Dalton on the mix. US original with light scuff marks, plays solid VG+ or better.

Loud pumpin calypso on seldom seen album release by the self declaired Queen of Calypso. My Carib Man is good but listen to the fast and furious Soca Merengue. Strongest EX++ condition.

Very rare promo single from their acclaimed The Velvet Gentleman debut album. Their albums are not to hard to track down but this Deram forty five is a first time find in our neck of the woods. Clean EX copy, cover ha...

What a crackin beat, how can you not nod your head to this one. B-boy break down. Pretty scarce US original on Chocolate City.
