A lost session by Nana Caymmi – recorded in Buenos Aires in 1973, with a great style that makes the record one of her best from the 70s! The album's got that dark slow jazzy style that she often used during the time – with a mixture of electric piano and bass behind her very deep voice ... (Brazil) read moreCD
Lovely later work from Nana Caymmi – just the sort of record that makes her a perfect heir to her family's strong musical tradition!

Very hip work from the Boston modern scene of the mid 50s!
