Very Good

  • Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
  • May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
  • May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
  • May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
  • This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is 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 as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Tamba Trio

Avanco
Philips (Brazil), Mid 60s. Good
A seminal set from one of the greatest bossa combos ever – a group who could boast sharp instrumentation and warm vocal harmonies too! The mix of sounds is completely sublime – jazzy piano trio sounds at the core, topped by soaring harmonies from the members of the trio – a ... LP, Vinyl record album

Caetano Veloso

Muitos Carnavais
Philips (Brazil), 1977. Near Mint-
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

Gal Costa

Personalidade
Philips (Brazil), 1970s/Early 1980s. Near Mint-
Gal's always been one of Brazil's greatest artists – whether she was singing strange raw tunes during her Tropicalia period, or moving into nice jazzy material during her later years. This set's a good introduction to her work, and it includes a lot of nice tracks that we don't always turn ... LP, Vinyl record album
Philips (Brazil), Mid 60s. Very Good
A lively batch of pop samba stuff from this big Brazilian artist of the 60's. The tracks are all fairly uptempo, with a sing song rhythm sound, and a nice 60's Brazilian pop groove. Tracks include "Leva Meu Samba", "Saudade Dela", "Sai Do Meu Caminho", "Vida De ... LP, Vinyl record album
Philips (Brazil), 1965. Very Good-
Killer work by one of the best of all the bossa vocal groups! Os Cariocas had a sweet swinging style that reminded us a lot of the best American jazz quartets at the time, and on this album they're set in some wonderful arrangements that are a lot more complicated than some of their earlier ... LP, Vinyl record album
Philips (Brazil), 1970. Very Good
A brilliantly baroque Brazilian soundtrack – one of those early 70s gems that's filled with loads of excellent tunes! The album features arrangements by Dory Caymmi, Luiz Eca, and Waltel Blanco – all working with a set of unique artists to craft some totally great tunes done in the ... LP, Vinyl record album

Roberto Menescal

Bossa Nova
Imperial (Brazil), 1964. Very Good
Early bossa album by the man who was one of the leading instrumentalists behind many of the bossa era's best singers. The set's fairly mellow, and all instrumental. Menescal plays guitar, and other instrumentation includes vibes & piano. The tracks have a light lilting bossa feel, with some ... LP, Vinyl record album
Imperial (Brazil), 1959. Very Good-
A beautiful early showcase of the compositions of Antonio Carlos Jobim – and one of the best late 50s albums from the lovely Sylvia Telles! The album's got a wonderfully gentle feel – one that's a far cry from some of the more emotive female vocal work that had come from Brazil in the ... LP, Vinyl record album

Demonios Da Garoa

Samba Do Metro
Chantecler (Brazil), 1975. Near Mint-
(Cover has some surface wear, bent corners, and some aging in back.) LP, Vinyl record album
Westminster, 1956. Near Mint-
(Collectors Series pressing. Cover has gloss wrinkles in front.) LP, Vinyl record album
Columbia, 1985. Near Mint-
The cover definitely reflects that 80s origin of the album – but as usual with Djavan, there's a lot more depth here going on than most of his contemporaries ever had to offer! The singer's less a Brazilian artist than a global soul star – singing in Portuguese, but with a quality that ... LP, Vinyl record album
Odeon (Brazil), 1968. Very Good
Great early work from Taiguara – less experimental than later years, but with excellent songs from Marcos Valle, Antonio Adolfo, Wagner Tiso, Chico Buarque, and Arthur Verocai – all set to nice arrangements from Gaya! LP, Vinyl record album
