Black vinyl that may show a slight amount of dust or dirt.
Should still be very shiny under a light, even with slight amount of dust on surface.
One or two small marks that would make an otherwise near perfect record slightly less so.
These marks cannot be too deep, and should only be surface marks that won't affect play,
but might detract from the looks.
May have some flaws and discoloration in the vinyl, but only those that would be
intrinsic to the pressing. These should disappear when the record is tilted under
the light, and will only show up when looking straight at the record.
(Buddah and ABC pressings from the 70's are a good example of this.)
May have some slight marks from aging of the paper sleeve on the vinyl.
Possible minor surface noise when played.
Condition Notes
If something is relevant, we try to describe it in the notes — especially
if it is release or pressing details,
or an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record.
This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip,
cover damage or wear, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
A lively album that mixes Caetano's rich songwriting style with a hard percussive base – a more grooving approach than usual – which gives the tracks a fast jumpy feel, and gives even more power to Caetano's strong vocals! There's some slight post-Tropicalia touches at time – a ... LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has some ring and edge wear, small sticker remnants at the top right, clear tape at the corners, and is bent a bit at the edges and corners.)LP, Vinyl record album
A nice batch of jazzy tracks by this under-recognized Brazilian singer – recorded for the Pointer label, with the kind of strong fusion backing that was the stock in trade of the label at the time. Filo's vocals are great, and very soulful – and he also plays a good deal of the ... LP, Vinyl record album
Obscure later work from Norma Benguell, better known for her classic 60s album on Odeon – a set that's late in the Elenco label, and which features guest work from Sivuca, Rosinha De Valenca, Celia Vaz, and others! LP, Vinyl record album
A collection of compositions by Dorival Caymmi – performed by Gal Costa, Maria Bethania, Chico Buarque, Tom Jobim & Dorival Caymmi, Elis Regina, Caetano Veloso, Sylvia Telles, Tamba Trio, Nana Caymmi, Zizi Possi, Fafa De Belem, Dorival Caymmi & Quarteto Em Cy, and Joao Gilberto with ...

A pretty great little album from Bonfa – always one of the more corruptible bossa players, working here in a groovy set of pop arrangements by Deodato with a lively American twist! Some tunes are fast-driving bossa numbers with good jazz accompaniment, others have backing vocals in a ... LP, Vinyl record album
One of the better early bossa albums by Bonfa, and one that doesn't have the sleepy quality that you find on some of his other records. Luiz' guitar is backed by a nice little combo, and the tracks have a lively rhythm, with occasional vocals, and some nice flute solos from time to time. The ... LP, Vinyl record album
One of Astrud Gilberto's greatest albums – and quite possibly our personal favorite! The record features beautifully understated arrangements by Joao Donato, Don Sebesky, and Claus Ogerman – and the instrumentation is a haunting mix of bossa rhythms with darker orchestrations that ... LP, Vinyl record album
A warm intimate set by these two legendary Brazilian talents – Nana Caymmi on vocals, and the legendary Cesar Camargo Mariano playing some wonderfully mellow keyboards. Mariano plays electric piano on most of the set, and the album's got a laidback quality that brings out the best in Nana ... LP, Vinyl record album
A nice little collection of classic samba tunes – re-recorded here by vocalist Cristina Buarque for her second album on RCA. The set showcases not just older tunes, but also compositions that were then current, but written by lesser-known talents who were being brought to light through ... LP, Vinyl record album
One of Roy Ayers' best-remembered albums of the 70s – a sublime blend of mellow numbers and some of his more club-oriented grooves of the time – all wrapped together with a genius that we can only describe as Ayers-like! The album's a beautiful example of the balance that Roy was ... LP, Vinyl record album
