Viva Brasil - S/T 1980 (SugarLoaf Records)

Really excellent record which I am surprised isn't available on the net already. Its from California and it has a really interesting blend of bossa-scat modern-soul and prog, with lots of sample friendly moments and a couple dancefloor friendly tunes. It's quite rare and I'm not sure why it isn't worth more money than it usually goes for. Usually around 60-100ish range. I'm sorry to report that I uploaded the uncut A and B sides to divshare instead of cutting the tracks and putting them in a zip. But I figure that's better than not having it at all. It's a very nice clean copy and it is in 192kbs. Enjoy. whoa I just noticed that Joe Henderson guest stars on Tenor Sax. Also if you are interested in buying this or the STRAPPED 7" I am going to have an auction very soon.

This album is fantastic, get it! I guess I could break it up into tracks if that is what's holding everyone back from enjoying this beauty.
