Today's Finds

[jazzy_dave]

This is more than a coincidence. In the post today I received a book I bought for two quid at Amazon Marketplace called The Rough Guide To Latin Music, 100 Essential CD's which was once reviewed by Wire magazine.



I am in town, in Faversham, posting off an item I sold online, and getting some food items, and then going around the charity shops. Guess what I find for fifty pence and which is reviewed on page 99 of the above book - this very CD from 1994.




This will be my fourth album by this Brazilain singer.

Sue Steward in the book says it is her best album, and I think I concur. The highlight features the Bahian Berimbau (fiddle) of a Carlinhos Brown song.

Marisa Monte - Segue o Seco

The other Cd that I found that I did not expect to get, as it was two CD's for a quid, was the Kronos Quartet CD "Nuevo" where this classical outfit does Latin music including one by loungecore maestro, Esquivel.

Kronos Quartet - Mini Skirt (Esquivel)

Enjoy.
