Second and last album release by Sergio Mendes proteges that stays true to his classic bossa nova adaption of international sellers like Spinning Wheel but this LP also holds two cracking covers of Jorge Ben in Zazuer...

Hard not to like Sergio Mendes with wonderful takes of Mas Que Nada, Agua De Beber and Triste. German pressing with alternate cover art. VG+ condition, vinyl very close to EX.

Essential Jorge Ben release with Pais Tropical, Taj Mahal, Os Alquimistas and obviously his famous dancer Mas Que Nada. Plenty of goodies for playing out. Rare US original on Island in strong VG+ condition.

This is the German pressing of his 10 Anos Depois with indentical track listing. Lots and lots of clubby tunes here with Mas Que Nada, Cosa Nostra, A Minha Menina Kind of a medley styled record but works well. Strong ...

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...

Wonderful Brasilian fusion / vocal jazz produced by George Duke. Line up is strong with Ndugu, Joe Farrell and obviously Airto. Sarara is great and so is Nascimento's From The Lonely Afternoon and Mtume's Love Lock. U...

Not a rare record but does not mean it is not good. George Duke at the production knobs and he brought in Patrice Rushen, Embamba, Ndugu and the most of the ususal suspects. Some discofied fusion tracks on here, the f...

Completely underrated affair by famed Brazilian percusionist that I belive would sit well with disco heads. Check The Groove that does everything the tittle suggest. Killer stuff in NM condition.

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.

Very popular European Bossa Nova / Latin Jazz record with a lovely upbeat version of Tristeza, drum break action on Funky Experience and batucada heat on Samba Blim. Nicest condition with unplayed vinyl.

Not the first time I have crossed paths with this oddball release as the cover of Morricone's Good, Bad & Ugly is great sample material but the clubby tunes are Tequila and Aquarius. Nice puppet cover art as well.

Like many other Mabel releases this is not an easy find. Nice soulbeat dancers with loud drums and groovy bassline but just check their fine choir cover of Jobim's Triste. Short but sweet. Strongest VG+ condition cove...

Seriously funky compilation here with Astrud Gilberto, Baden Powell and most notably the Franco-Brazilian group Os Maracatu. Top choice Barracuda and Samba grooves for the dancefloor on this record. Like new copy with...

Rare sixties carnaval get down with samba for days. João Roberto Kelly and Carlos Moraes join the local Copacabana Orchestra for the party time spirits. Clean EX condition with only a few inaudible marks.

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...

Hard to find volume 2 of the popular Samba Suor E Ourico series. Some heated sambas and heavy hitting batucada burners on here however the downtempo tunes stand out. Check the fresh cover of Xica Da Silva by O Que Ser...

Rare compilation with goodies by Banda Mel, Geronimo, Celso Bahia and many more. Love the mix of traditional styled samba with modern styled synth and drum machine patterns. Hard find in lovely condition, cover has sl...

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...
