Azymuth Live At The Copacabana Palace (turquoise vinyl pressing) ... LP 
Culture Factory, 1979. New Copy ... $27.99 29.99
A great live set from Azymuth – recorded in Rio in 1979, with a harder, more open feel than most of their studio work of the time! The set takes off with the intensity of a classic 70s fusion set – led by the majestic keyboards of Jose Roberto Bertrami, really kicking out here with a ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Malandro ... LP Barclay (Brazil), 1985. Very Good ... $5.99
The soundtrack for the film version of Chico Buarque's famous opera Malandro – and quite possibly the best recording of the music we've heard!

Mario Castro Neves & Samba SA ... LP RCA/Mr Bongo (UK), 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 29.99
One of the more obscure Brazilian harmony bossa albums of the 60s – yet a set that we'd put right up there next to our favorite work from Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 – and maybe some of the even groovier acts recording down in Brazil! Mario Castro Neves is best known as a piano ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available Mario Castro Neves & Samba SA ... CD 11.99

Gal Costa —
Gal Tropical ... LP Philips (Brazil), 1979. Very Good Gatefold ... $11.99
Light and lively work from the great Gal Costa – a set that's light years away from her Tropicalia experiments of a decade before, but which is equally beautiful in its own sort of way! First off, Gal's vocals are amazing – more expressive and dynamic than in the early days – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the poster! Cover has edge wear.)
Deodato —
Whirlwinds ... LP MCA, 1974. Very Good+ Gatefold ... Just Sold Out!
Sweet keyboard soul from Deodato – a set that steps off nicely from the strengths of his big hits on CTI, hitting a similarly flowing groove that's really great! The instrumentation here is a bit more expanded than before, but never in a way that buries the keyboards – and Deodato's ... (Jazz, Brazil) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original black label pressing. A nice copy.)
Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto —
Getz Au Go Go ... LP Verve, 1964. Very Good- Gatefold ... $9.99
A beautiful dreamy album that's quite different from the classic Getz/Gilberto collaboration – but which also shares much of that set's lyrical beauty! This album was recorded live, in 1964, when Stan Getz was playing with his quartet that included Gary Burton on vibes – an incredible ... (Jazz, Brazil) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Tim Maia —
Tim Maia (1977) ... LP Mr Bongo (UK), 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 27.98
70s soul from Brazil – and a tremendously strong effort from the legendary Tim Maia!

There's a really focused sound ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Sergio Mendes —
Sergio Mendes (1983) ... LP A&M, 1983. Near Mint- ... $2.99
Upbeat soul from Sergio Mendes – but a record that's still got a Brazilian heart beating underneath!

(Cover has light wear.)
Marisa Monte —

The first album by Marisa Monte, and the start of a fantastic run of records – really strong work that had Monte emerging as maybe one of the strongest new acts in Brazil at the time!

Milton (1976) ... LP A&M, 1976. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $29.99
An important American album for the great Milton Nascimento – his first recorded in the US since the earlier Courage set for A&M – and like that record, a perfect bridge between the sound of his work in Brazil and the global modes that he had to offer!

Paulinho Nogueira —
Agua Branca ... LP Eldorado (Brazil), 1983. Near Mint- ... $7.99
An intimate set, and one with a touch of jazz too – thanks to arranger Nelson Ayres, who also plays piano and keyboards on the record!

Baden Powell —
Images on Guitar ... LP MPS, 1973. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
One of Baden Powell's grooviest albums ever – a brilliant blend of his bossa roots with the freer 70s grooves of MPS! The album follows the mode of some of his other European recordings, but is still a bit different – in that the overall sound is a bit freer than before, with tracks ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(70s US pressing. Cover has light wear and aging, but looks fantastic overall.)
Rubinho E Mauro Assumpcao —
Perfeitamente – Justamente Quando Cheguei ... LP Tapecar/Mr Bongo (UK), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 30.99
A bit trippy, a bit groovy – and a very compelling little set from the Brazilian duo of Rubinho & Mauro Assumpcao! At one level, the record's got an earthy feel that matches the cover image of the pair climbing out of a tree without their shirts on – but at another level, there's ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Tambu ... LP Fantasy, 1974. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Man! This one's a stunning 70s set from the great Cal Tjader – a set that features Charlie Byrd on guitar, and some especially great electric piano lines from Mike Wolff – which makes for a cool electric/acoustic combination that really sends the album home nicely!

Sweet and jazzy pop from early 70s Brazil – a great little album that we'd rank with our favorites by Marcos Valle and Edu Lobo!

Tom Ze —
Estudando O Samba ... LP Continental/Mr Bongo (UK), 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 27.98
A record with "samba" in the title, but a set that hardly sounds like samba at all – given that the record is one of the groundbreaking 70s albums from the legendary Tom Ze! Ze first rose to fame as an experimentalist in the Tropicalia scene – but here, he's years past that ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
