I love Astrud Gilberto and this is in my opinion her best recording. From the close up on the cover to the orchestration and her beautiful voice, it is simply perfect. If you have not started indulging in her bossa no...

Eigties MPB with some mellow boogie influence but also a few uptempo samba cuts. Seldom seen Brazilian original.

Very funky affair from Brazilian singer Jair Rodrigues. Check out the opener Cesteiro for an idea of direction here. Brazilian originial in stunning condition.

Seldom seen Brazilian original from Nara Leao blending a beautiful mix of traditional bossa nova and MPB. I opted for Telefone on the soundclip but the entire album is strong in quality. There exist a Japanese pressin...

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.

Very scarce Brazil original by the wonderful Nara Leao covering some of the finest Bossa Nova tracks. Desafinado, Wave, Samba De Uma Nota So... the list is long. Recorded in Tokyo. Unplayed condition.

Essential album that is a top 10 of all time best Bossa Nova recordings. A very enjoyable experience from start to finish by the young Gal Costa and Caetano Veloso. Second Brazilian pressing in great condition.

Top Brazilian original from Ole Do Partido Alto with tons of dancefloor friendly sambas and batucada breaks. Few lights paperscuffs but still a very clean copy.

Picked up this brilliant album in Rio years back. It compiles Meirelles E Sua Orquestra with Mas Que Nada, A Banda, Pais Tropical but also holds Cipo & His Authentic Rhythm Group with Implorar and even Nelsinho E Sua ...

Brilliant up-tempo Calango Samba cuts for the dancefloor by Martinho Da Vila hailing from Rio. German only compilation in spotless condition.

Scarce Brazilian original from 1971 packed with unused Batucada and Samba breaks. Surprised just how good this album really is. One light hairline not affecting play.

Very scarce promotion only EP release with A-side two full version LP tracks and the flip a medley packed with samba heat. Never seen this little treat before.

Promotion record for Brasilian culture in Europe. Some unusual choir goes samba on this little gem. Light dirt on wax causing distortion for 30 seconds of quiet intro on one of the four tracks.

Brazilian original from '85 with an excellent blend of mellow MPB and some jazz funk influences. Vinyl in near mint and cover with sizeable cut out corner and pen marks on cover.

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 ugly looking tear to front cover.

You can not fully explore the original Brazilian sounds without exploring the world of Joao Bosco. A very unique guitar style and always upbeat lyrics makes for a great listening experience. German only release on Tro...

Lovely clean copy of another quality mid 80s Jorge Ben recording. He just always sounds good. Holds the excellent Roberto Corta Essa and my favorite in Pancada De Amor Nao Doi. French pressing in EX condition.

Top quality samba vibes from one of the hardest working men in the business. Holds the brilliant Que Preta Que Nega and Transando Em Nova York. Brazilian original in stunning condition.

Martinho Da Vila is one of the true originators of the Brazilian Samba. This one takes us back to earlier times and blends calango and batucada. Spotless condition.

Stunning stock copy with gatefold cover and vinyl in near perfect condition. Pretty upbeat stuff on this album with Tristeza and So Danco Samba the highlights in my ears.
