For my DC ppl Roy ayers is coming to town soon

 

[Kimchi Papi]

I've seen him live a bunch of times. Always puts on a great show.

This is funny Roy Ayers story as told by Bobbito Garcia.

Just picked up Takuya Kuroda's Blue Note debut off of iTunes. I like it very much. There weren't any new vids from him from this release except for this trailer.

 

[Sinner]

In keeping with the funk-theme...

Brazilian music has such a nice and calming effect on me.

'S Wonderful - Joao Gilberto

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 - Mas Que Nada

Check out who introduces Sergio & his crew... I can't wait until the World Cup this summer. Real football...

 

[omgitswes]

My mother literally just asked me if Eartha Kitt was still alive.
Love that song too. I'm really looking forward to Brazil's Summer Olympics opening ceremonies

Is that considered bossa nova or samba?

 

[Kimchi Papi]

It's samba. It was originally written & recorded by Jorge Benjor (you might see his name as Jorge Ben or Jorge Ben Jor). Mendes covered it & got a big hit out of it...





This is a newer performance from him... Purists will say the original is much better...

Clifford Brown - Joy Spring

Not jazz but I've been in a blues mood today. I think I've posted blues in here before and everyone seemed cool with it.

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Freddie King - Five Long Years & Tore Down

Post as many blues songs as you want Wes... Blues will heal you... Little Walter is the ish...

Don't mess with Texas... Another bad *** Texan. This is my favorite blues song at the moment. Was written & originally recorded by Eddie Boyd but has been covered by Muddy Waters, BB King, John Lee Hooker, among others. Freddie King's version is my favorite. Also love Tore Down...

 

[Kimchi Papi]
