Djavan —
Seduzir ... CD EMI (Brazil), 1981. Used ... Out Of Stock
Spare, simple work from Djavan – the kind of soulful set that made him one of the most dramatic mainstream talents in Brazil at the start of the 80s – and one of the few of his generation to reach out to a larger global market! The album's got a very Milton Nascimento sort of vibe ... read more CD

Alma ... CD EMI (Brazil), 1986. Used ... Out Of Stock
A subtle album of magical beauty from Egberto Gismonti – and a lesser known record that features him mostly in a solo piano mode. The work's still quite lively, though – filled with wonderful little touches and whimsical moments that often dip down into more somber playing – and ... read more CD
