CD

✈
A wonderful little record – every bit as lovely as you'd expect from its title and cover! The set's the brainchild of Bobby Brazil – but also features sweet vocals from Viviane De Farias, who gives the record a depth that takes us back to older female Brazilian work of the early 70s. Bobby's style is vaguely in the bossa-remix mode, but there's also a deeper approach at work here – one that centers more on the overall soul of the song, and which features well-crafted instrumentation that magically wraps itself around Viviane's vocals! Warm tones and rich colors abound, and titles include "Viva Ronrico", "Deusa Negra", "The Waterfalls Of Iguazu", "Song For Joao", "Sambodromo", "Beja Flor", and "Brahma Vs Antartica".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

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.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.

Cosmic Flux, 2000. Used
The Brazilia here is very "virtual" – in that it drops in for a visit to touch each track with a slight Brazilian influence, but mostly leaves things to stay in a relatively modern and electronic groove. The set's similar to titles like Break N Bossa or Gluchlich III – and it ... CD

Lonesome Spaceboy
Irma (Italy), 2001. Used
A strange little record that's a bit tough to describe. The theme appears to be 50s space age – but the sound is more of a cartoony remix of some loungey grooves, with a fairly heavy leaning towards more current popular music. There's bits of guitar pop in the set, bits of pop drum n bass, ... CD

Belle Et Fou
Sonar Kollektiv (Germany), 2007. Used
Quite an unusual project from Jazzanova – a mixture of older tracks and newer ones, all brought together for an erotic German stage production! The theme of the show really unifies the tracks in a great way – bringing out qualities in Jazzanova's music that we've never noticed before, ... CD

Beautiful new work from Joyce – possibly her best album in years! The lovely Brazilian singer/guitarist blows away all the newcomers in the modern bossa field – and shows the world that she's still one of the strongest talents of her generation. The album's got a stronger jazz ... CD
Omagatoki (Japan), 1990s. Used
Really beautiful work from Joyce – a set that's as lovely as its name, and which contains a wonderful array of work from the less-collected years of her career! Most other Joyce collections focus on her older sides for EMI Brasil, but this set seems to offer more recent recordings – ... CD
