Gal A Todo Vapor – Fa Tal ... LP Philips (Brazil), 1971. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Beautiful live set from 1971, featuring a very stripped down set of stuff.

So Danco Samba ... CD Lumiar (Brazil), 1999. Used ... Out Of Stock
Very tasty set of jazz tracks by legendary Brazilian pianist Joao Donato, performed as a loving tribute to Jobim, and with the same polished bossa sound as many other titles on the Lumiar label.

Sintetizamor ... CD Polysom/Far Out (UK), 2017. New Copy ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
One of the most unusual projects we've ever heard from the legendary Joao Donato – not the bossa jazz of his roots, but instead a fresh new groove created with his son Donatinho! The music is heavy on keyboards, and definitely has the 80s vibe promised by the cover – with the younger ... read more CD

Cantando No Banheiro ... LP Polydor (Brazil), 1982. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
New Wave hits Brazil – in case you couldn't tell by the album's op-art cover, and Dusek's sunglassed trendoid image on the front! The album seems to be relatively tongue in cheek – although it's a bit hard to tell if you don't speak the language – and titles include "Rock Da ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

The harmonies are great – and follow in a legacy that includes older groups like ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Eliane Elias really shows off her vocal skills here – singing the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim at a level that really recalls some of the best breathy singers of the 60s – a mode that was especially rare at the time this set was recorded!
