I leave a few clues here for my DJ friends. When you see an LP cover appear again & again over several volumes of these mixes, then you can rest assured that the LP is a strong one. An example would be, Geraldo Filme [1980 Estúdio Eldorado]. This LP is all over my Samba Showdowns. A Masterpiece in every way!
The other key thing is repeats on artists over several mixes. A few names on repeat are João Bosco, Antônio Carlos & Jocafi, João Nogueira, Dóris Monteiro, Martinho Da Vila, Emilio Santiago, Candeia, Os Originais Do Samba, Paulinho Da Viola, etc, etc.

My favorite thing to do when I've just done it, is to do it again. Here's to doin' it again & again & again. Brasil is one of the most fertile musical areas on this here Earth. May these compilations be the PROOF that this music is endlessly enjoyable & highly spinable. Bravo to the infinite bliss that is the music of South America! Enjoy.

P.S. I'd like to think of what I'm doing with this series as a kind of reporting. There's a very good story over here in Brasil in the 70's. The art of recording is through the roof. These kids over here are no joke. The art of mic-ing & tape saturation & mastering is high, high art! Combine that with perhaps one of the most developed rhythm sections & melodic craft fused to masterful arranging & engineering & you've got "A Golden Age". There's a fantastic story here & I'd like very much to report on what I'm seeing here, 'coz it's great! I hope you agree?

Samba-heads get off your ass & dance all over your Mother. She prefers that to war. Perhaps one day Earth will be known as a planet of love just like our sister planet Venus, but we'll have to LOVE towards that GOAL. OK?

"HELP", I've been taken hostage by this music called SAMBA. Worst things have happened though. Plus, I'm a willing captive.
You're maybe thinking, "Can he surprise us with more delectable goodies?" Well, just when you thought I couldn't surprise you anymore, I'm gonna drop one on 'ya...ha ha. Also, these 6 volumes equal 144 songs & 7 hours of music. If anyone is looking for a HIGHLY SPIRITED DJ, I'm for hire anywhere on planet E & yes, I'll play your Bar or Bat Mitzvah. Come on Mom & Dad & treat your special 13 year old to a Samba bash.

Some things are just ready to happen & so they do. I present this volume in keeping with the flow of energy of the season...Spring! So here's to Spring as it becomes Summer. Since Spring is the time of year when everything is in bloom, I present yet another bouquet of musical pickings. I will beg off with continuity from volume to volume, but ask that you consider these a roundup of some of the better tracks from that era "The '70's". I do my very best to make sure each volume is full of surprises. I hope you say after listening to this, "Boy, where did he find that one?". Let's see, or should I say "Let's hear". Wishing massive Sambas to your Summer or if you're in Brasil, Winter. Enjoy!

P.S. A special thank you to Zecalouro @ Lorinox blogspot & SABADABADA blogspot for their contributions to this volume & of course Greg Cas.
If there was ever any doubt about the STRENGTHS of the SAMBA SCENE, let those ghosts be guided back towards the light of CLARITY. I wave my hand & ask that all mystery be transformed into the beautiful truth of Earths rightful place of dance ecstasy.
