Vi Velasco with Zoot Sims

Cantanto Bossa Nova
Colpix (Japan), 1962. New Copy
One of the few albums ever cut by singer Vi Velasco – and a great vocal follow-up to the Zoot Sims bossa albums on Colpix! Zoot plays tenor on this record too – mixing his solos with Vi's vocals in a style that's like the interplay between Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto – with a ...
cover art  
Daybreak/P-Vine (Japan), 1972. New Copy
Sweet keyboard genius from the legendary Manfredo Fest – an early 70s effort that's got a really wonderful groove! The style here is a bit like some of the best CTI recordings during their early years with A&M – kind of an update of 60s bossa that features full, warm, jazzy ...

Antonio Adolfo

Chora Baiao
AAM, 2011. Used

Ithamara Koorax

Got To Be Real
Irma (Italy), 2012. New Copy
Maybe the greatest album so far from Ithamara Koorax – and quite a change from some of her previous records, too! A number of the songs are 70s soul classics – music that's clearly inspired Ithamara over the years, and which really drives her to deliver a strongly soulful vocal ...

Orlann Divo (aka Orlandivo)

Orlann Divo
Musidisc/Whatmusic (UK), 1963. New Copy (reissue)
Warm bossa grooves – and the second album by Orlandivo, billed here on the cover as Orlann Divo! The album's a great batch of instrumentals – jazzy, with a mix of percussion, bass, and organ that's quite different from the usual bossa album of its type – much more expansive, and ...
cover art  
Plug Research, 2011. New Copy Gatefold
A groovy little record from Domenico – one that's got the same best elements of his music with Moreno Veloso and Kassin, but which almost has a more intimate feel overall! Most tunes here have a relatively tight song structure – almost always with lyrics by Domenico, although Moreno ...
cover art  
T&M/P-Vine (Japan), 1976. New Copy
A sublime little set – quite possibly the greatest album ever from Brazilian keyboardist Manfredo Fest! Manfredo first cut his teeth on the bossa scene of the 60s – but by the time of this rare indie session, he'd moved up to the US – and was working with sweet keyboards to ...
cover art  
Tabu/P-Vine (Japan), 1979. New Copy
An incredible batch of Brazilian fusion – cut by keyboardist Manfredo Fest, and one of the few records he ever waxed in the US during the 70s! The record mixes Fest's soaring Brazilian groove with a tight soulful set of arrangements by Jerry Peters – a bit club-oriented, with a similar ...
cover art  
Elektra, 1977. Very Good
One of the funkiest albums Sergio Mendes ever recorded – a monster of a record that's filled with enough dancefloor groovers to have had a big impact on the soul market in the US! There's still elements of the older Mendes modes – especially in the way the vocals float nicely through ...
cover art  

Azymuth

Crazy Rhythm
Milestone, 1988. Sealed
While in the post fusion years when lite jazz was beginning to take off a lot of jazz and fusion artists got a bit lost, Azymuth continued to make a number of fine recordings, some of the best of their career. Bertrami and crew continue to groove along in their tight Brazilian fusion mode, with a ...

Astrud Gilberto & Walter Wanderley

Certain Smile, Certain Sadness
Verve, 1966. Very Good
Kind of a dream combination in one little album – especially if you dig breezy bossa from the 60s! Back in 1966, Verve Records got the great idea of teaming up its (then) biggest Brazilian imports – vocalist Astrud Gilberto and organist Walter Wanderley – both of whom were ...

cover art  
Concord, 1995. Used
One of the best of Manfredo Fest's later albums – a breezy batch of jazz tunes with a distinctly Brazilian flair! The record was recorded by Manfredo's regular trio, but it features some spectacular guest work by Hendrick Meurkens on harmonica – blowing breezy harmonic lines across the ...

Verve Jazz Masters 9
Verve, Mid 60s. Used
15 tracks of breathy bossa brilliance! ...

Patricia Marx

Trinta
Lab 344 (Brazil), 2013. New Copy
Warm, wonderful, and completely beautiful work from Patricia Marx – a singer we've followed from the start, and who's reemerged here after a bit of silence – sounding even more spellbinding than ever! Patricia's one of the most soulful Brazilian singers of the past decade or two – ...
cover art  
Discovery, Mid 60s. Very Good+
A wickedly wonderful album by Jobim – recorded in LA in the mid 60s, and a perfect meeting of styles that makes for one of his most compelling albums of the 60s! Jobim sings and plays over pillowy-soft arrangements by Claus Ogerman – lightly dancing numbers that weave strings and ...
cover art  

Marcos Valle

Previsao Do Tempo
Odeon/Light In The Attic, 1973. New Copy
An insanely wonderful album that will always remain one of the all-time favorites of the Dusty Groove staff! This beautiful batch of tracks by Brazilian singer/songwriter Marcos Valle has him pushing waaaay past his bossa work of the 60s – into a cool 70s mix of electronics and sexy scoring, ...
cover art  

Quintal De Clorofila

O Misterio Dos Quintais
Discos Mariposa (Argentina), 1983. New Copy
Complicated and folksy work from Quintal De Clorofila – aka Garden Of Chlorophyll – the duo of Negendre and Dimitri Arbo, singing together and working on an assortment of instruments that include acoustic guitars, casio keyboard, bandolim, microharp, soprano sax, flute, and lots of ...
cover art  

Vera Sienra

Nuestra Soledad/Vera
RCA/Lion, 1969/1972. New Copy
Two rare Argentine albums from Vera Sienra – back to back on a single CD, with great notes too! Nuestra Soledad is a tremendous debut, and unlike anything that we can easily put into words – fado in style, but carried off in a way that's more bossa nova overall – yet done with a ...
cover art  
Which, Late 60s. New Copy
A wild collection of rare tracks from this legendary group of the Tropicalia scene – a few outtakes and live tracks, but also some cool commercials, and collaborations with Caetano Veloso too – all brought together in a set that's a great complement to their famous albums of the late ...

Sambas De Enredo – Carnaval 85
Top Tape (Brazil), Mid 80s. Very Good+
...
cover art  

Astrud Gilberto

Astrud Gilberto Now
Perception, 1972. Very Good
Killer work by Astrud Gilberto – very different than her Verve sides of the 60s! The album was produced by Astrud, arranged by Deodato – and has that wonderful warm full jazz feel of her classic album on CTI, but also a bit more like some of the funky work of Jorge Ben at the time ...
cover art  

Edison Machado

Obras
Whatmusic (UK), New Copy Gatefold (reissue)
A deeply jazzy album from Brazil – one of the few rare records cut by the combo of Edison Machado, one of Brazil's greatest drummers of the 60s! The set has a sound that's quite different from Machado's earlier work – a fusion of post-bossa and post-Coltrane styles that comes off with ...

Odeon/Light In The Attic, 1973. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)
An insanely wonderful album that will always remain one of the all-time favorites of the Dusty Groove staff! This beautiful batch of tracks by Brazilian singer/songwriter Marcos Valle has him pushing waaaay past his bossa work of the 60s – into a cool 70s mix of electronics and sexy scoring, ...
cover art  
Polydor, 1971. New Copy (reissue)
Quite possibly the last truly sublime album ever recorded by Os Mutantes – a set that's a bit more rock-oriented then their first few, but still pretty revolutionary overall! The group have expanded to a quintet at this point, but haven't yet falling into the guitar-heavy groove of later ...
cover art  

Erica & Chiqhinho Et Les Show Rio

Brazil 77
Vadim (France), 1977. New Copy
Breezy bossa from late 70s Paris – a rare European session from Rio ex-patriots Erica Norimar and Chiquinho Timoteo! The record's got a warmly jazzy glow that takes full advantage of the vocals of both artists – trading them back and forth on the more lively tunes, in a way that's ...
cover art  
Odeon/El (UK), Late 50s. New Copy
Pure bossa magic – and a wonderful illustration of why the early music of Joao Gilberto was so tremendous! (Actually, all of his music is tremendous, but that seems to be especially the case here!) The tracks are all fantastic – breezy, breathy, and almost effortlessly sung throughout ...
cover art  
El (UK), Late 50s/Early 60s. New Copy 2CDs
A beautiful collection of work from the legendary Joao Gilberto – some of the most important bossa nova recordings ever, plus a fair bit of rarities as well! The first CD in the set features three full early albums from Gilberto – Chega De Saudade, O Amor O Sorriso E A Flor, and Joao ...
cover art  

Teca & Ricardo

Cade O Povo
Pulp Flavor/Dare Dare (France), 1976. New Copy
Sweetly jazzy Brazilian grooves from the team of Teca & Ricardo – a lovely album recorded in France in the mid 70s, and unheard for years! The feel here is not that dissimilar from some of the recent work by Tom & Joyce, or classic work by the team of Jaime & Nair – Teca's ...
cover art  

Flora Purim

Stories To Tell
Milestone, 1974. Very Good+
Excellent work from Flora Purim – one of the wonderful west coast bits of Braziliana recorded in the Fantasy Records studios during the mid 70s! The record's a perfect example of the greatness that arose when Brazil's best talents had the chance to work with some of America's best jazz and ...
cover art  

Antonio Carlos Jobim

Certain Mr Jobim
Warner, Mid 60s. Very Good+
A wickedly wonderful album by Jobim – recorded in LA in the mid 60s, and a perfect meeting of styles that makes for one of his most compelling albums of the 60s! Jobim sings and plays over pillowy-soft arrangements by Claus Ogerman – lightly dancing numbers that weave strings and ...
cover art  

Azymuth

Carioca
Milestone, 1989. Very Good
The last of Azymuth's LPs before Jose Roberto Bertrami left, only to rejoin the group about a decade later. The group's still in fine form here, playing everything from breezy Brazilian jazz and fusion , to some acoustic jazz numbers, and as always, Bertrami's work on the keys is fluid and bright. ...
cover art  

Milton Nascimento

Clube Da Esquina 2
Odeon/EMI (Brazil), 1978. Very Good 2LP Gatefold
Milton's second volume of tracks cut with his legendary "corner club" – with a very similar approach to the landmark first volume! Loads of great artists make guest appearances on here, like Lo Borges, Wagner Tiso, Toninho Horta, and Chico Buarque – and the production has ...
cover art  

Tania Maria

Come With Me
Picante, 1983. Near Mint-
A real classic – one of Tania Maria's greatest American albums, and a sublime blend of styles that shows that her move to the US was not in vein! The group's an easy going west coast Latin ensemble with Eddie Duran on guitar, and the style is a breezy Brazilian one – perfectly situated ...

RCA, Mid 50s. Very Good

Sergio Mendes & Brasil '65

In Person At El Matador
Atlantic, 1965. Very Good
A great little live set from Sergio Mendes and his Brasil 65 group – a pre-Brasil 66 combo that features Wanda De Sah on vocals and Rosinha De Valenca on guitar! The style here is more traditionally Brazilian bossa than Sergio's later work on A&M – a fluidly jazzy groove captured ...
cover art  
Capitol, 1965. Very Good+
A very unique album by Sergio Mendes – recorded in LA in the years before his Brasil 66 albums for A&M – but with a sound that clearly shows him going for the new bossa approach! The album's got some lovely vocals by Wanda De Sah, plus occasional guitar work by Rosinha De Valenca ...
cover art  

Gal Costa

Gal Canta Caymmi
Philips (Brazil), 1976. Very Good+
Gal Costa runs through a set of Dorival Caymmi's classics, with a good set of 70's arrangements, and some excellent accompaniment by Joao Donato, Roberto Menescal, and Antonio Adolpho. Donato also did a number of the arrangements, and the tracks include "Sao Salvador", "Vatapa" ...
cover art  
Verve, 1960s/1970s/1980s. Used 3CD
A beautiful package – as beautiful as the music of Jobim, and one of the true fitting tributes to his genius! The set is a retrospective of the work of Antonio Carlos Jobim – and it features tracks that stretch back to his early recordings for Verve, CTI, and Philips (from both the US ...

Mario Adnet

Jobim Jazz
Adventure Music, 2007. Used
Jazz versions of classics by Antonio Carlos Jobim – all done by a group arranged and directed by guitarist Mario Adnet, and featuring guest work from Joyce, Helio Delmiro, Romero Lumbambo, and others! The sound here is really fresh – not merely just a reworking of Jobim's original ...
cover art  
Adventure Music, 2002. Used 2CD
A beautiful set of symphonic tracks based around the work of Antonio Carlos Jobim – work that stretches back to the 50s, up through 60s bossa nova, and even includes some of Jobim's more complicated orchestrations from the 70s! The music is done in the arch-baroque style of other titles on ...
cover art  
Favorite (France), 2012. New Copy
A contemporary set, but one that sparkles with all the best brilliance of the 70s scene in Brazil – and that includes such heady company as Marcos Valle, Azymuth, and Joao Donato! As with all those artists at the time, Lucas Arruda has a groove that's strongly based on Fender Rhodes – ...
cover art  
Discobertas (Brazil), 1966. New Copy
Cool sounds from Sergio Murillo – a singer whose style here is right up in the same mode as the mid 60s Jovem Guarda in Brazil! Like that scene, Sergio's approach here is heavily rooted in American rock – particularly the core modes of a few years before – served up with lots of ...
cover art  
Discobertas (Brazil), 1970. New Copy
Sergio Murillo's a bit more laidback here than on some of his rocking work of earlier years – emerging as a warm-voiced singer, with just the sort of sound you'd expect from his image on the cover – set to arrangements that sometimes have a few great groovy touches! Most of the music ...
cover art  
Discobertas (Brazil), 2008. New Copy 2CD
A mighty fresh take on The Beatles' White Album – served up by a host of underground Brazilian talents from the past decade or so – all with versions that are very liberal takes on the original tunes! The album's definitely one of the most far-reaching in this great Brazilian Beatles ...
cover art  
Discobertas (Brazil), 2010. New Copy
A great tribute to the other half of the Double Fantasy team – in a sweet set of Brazilian remakes of songs by Yoko Ono! The package has a surprisingly sensitive feel – none of the offbeat, avant Ono in the mix – and instead, a wonderfully sweet quality that almost comes through ...
