Ithamara Koorax —
Love Dance – The Ballad Album ... CD Milestone/JSR, 2003. Used ... $1.99
A relatively mellow vocal outing from Ithamara Koorax – a voice that was introduced to us from her appearances on some groovy Brazilian dancefloor tunes, including some of those from Dom Um Romao's albums! The style here is quite different – very laidback, and in the ballad mode you'd ... (Vocalists, Brazil) read more CD
Max De Castro —
Samba Raro ... CD Trama (Brazil), 1999. Used ... $5.99
Funky samba and modern beats collide in this great set of tracks by Max De Castro – a newer gem on the Trama label, with a similar spirit to the label's debut by Otto, and recent work from Brazil in the modern samba soul vein! Max is clearly inspired by 70s soul artists like Tim Maia or ... read more CD

Peri —
Samba Passarinho ... CD Baticum (Brazil), 2005. Used ... $7.99
Light and beautiful work from Peri – a modern Brazilian composer, but one with all the sensitive grace of the best bossa stars from earlier years! Peri's working here in a mostly solo setting – singing along with his acoustic guitar, in a way that echoes similar modes from Joyce, Joao ... read more CD
Chico Buarque —
Meus Caros Amigos ... CD Philips (Brazil), 1976. Used ... $14.99
A wonderful mid 70s album by Chico Buarque – proof that he was still one heck of a songwriter, and a pretty decent singer, despite the fact that he'd grown a silly-looking moustache! The production's very nice, too – with that excellent compressed sound that was being used on some ... read more CD
(Out of print and sealed.)
Antonio Carlos Jobim —
Urubu (CDr pressing) ... CD Warner, 1976. Used ... $4.99
Brilliant 70s material by Antonio Carlos Jobim – one of his key sets from the middle part of the decade that had the composer really deepening his approach to both singing and songwriting – moving past some of the more instrumental modes that he was using at the start of the decade! ... read more CD
(Out of print, on demand CDr pressing.)
Johnny Alf —
Johnny Alf ... CD Eldorado (Brazil), Early 1960s. Used ... $7.99
Nice reissue of some of Johnny Alf's rare bossa nova sides from the mid 60's! Unlike some of the other Brazilian bossa artists who made it big in the states (like Jobim and Joao Gilberto), Johnny Alf was a major talent in Brazil, but never really got exported properly. His sound is warm and ... read more CD

Tracks include "De Cigarro Em Cigarro", "O Barbinah Branca", "Engano", "Perdido De Amor", "Manha De Carnaval", and "Eu Voce E O Mar". 14 tracks total. CD

Nana Caymmi —
Nana Caymmi (Em Buenos Aires) ... CD RGE (Brazil), 1973. Used ... $8.99
A lost session by Nana Caymmi – recorded in Buenos Aires in 1973, with a great style that makes the record one of her best from the 70s! The album's got that dark slow jazzy style that she often used during the time – with a mixture of electric piano and bass behind her very deep voice ... read more CD
Chico Buarque —
Chico Buarque (1984) ... CD Philips (Brazil), 1984. Used ... $8.99
An overlooked gem from Chico's mid 80s period – a record filled with strong and subtle songs, often backed by some nicely jazz-tinged arrangements from Cristovao Bastos! The album's not as revolutionary as some of Chico's earlier records, but it more than makes up for that with an incredibly ... read more CD
Also available Chico Buarque (1984) ... LP 4.99(Out of print and sealed.)
Baden Powell —
Tempo Feliz ... CD Forma/Polygram (Japan), 1966. Used ... $8.99
A really beautiful early album from Baden Powell, and a really unique one as well – as the set features some guest work from harmonica player Mauricio Einhorn – a very jazzy talent who was a bit like the Toots Thielemans of Brazil at the time! The combination of harmonica and acoustic ... read more CD
(1998 Japanese pressing.)
Jorge Ben —
Forca Bruta ... CD Philips/Dusty Groove, 1970. Used ... $8.99
A fantastically soulful album from Jorge Ben – one of his greatest records ever, and a key part of Brazilian music in the 70s! The album marks an earthier shift for Jorge – a sound that's still rooted in the samba influences of the 60s, but which also takes on a bit more soul at the ... read more CD

Deodato —
Whirlwinds/MCA/BGO (UK), 1974. Used ... Just Sold Out!
Two post-CTI gems from Deodato – back to back on a single CD! Whirlwinds is 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 ... (Jazz, Brazil) read more CD

Azymuth —
Cascades/Milestone, 1982/1983. New Copy ... $11.99 12.98
Sublimely soulful work from Azymuth – 2 albums back to back on a single CD! Cascades is fantastic fusion from a group who just couldn't miss during these early 80s California years! The sound here is smooth, but never slick – always a little offbeat, and quite different from more ... read more CD

Forca Bruta ... CD Philips/Universal (Japan), 1970. New Copy ... $10.99 13.99
A fantastically soulful album from Jorge Ben – one of his greatest records ever, and a key part of Brazilian music in the 70s!

Geraldo Vandre —
Enciclopedia Musical Brasileira ... CD WEA (Brazil), Mid 60s. Used ... $6.99
In the years before the emergence of MPB giants like Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso, Geraldo Vandre was a huge talent that promised to break big – a young vibrant singer who pushed past the romantic stylings of other vocalists, a free thinker who embraced new styles but didn't succumb to the ... read more CD
