yeah the search function is being a wee bit sketchy, so i'm not entirely certain this hasn't been made already... but.
i just wanted to profess my love for the music of brazil, especially during the late 60s and early 70s... Bossa and Tropicalia...
any fans?

some personal faves: Joao Gilberto Gilberto Gil Milton Nascimento Chico Buarque Gal Costa Hermeto Pascoale Edu Lobo Walter Santos Tom Ze Lula Cortes e Ze Ramalho Satwa
also the pretty brillian producer Rogerio Duprat, responsible for many really awesome albums from many of the above and others...

i don't know enough about it, but i do like the uptempo jazz inflected stuff, i've got a few albums by joyce, and a comp of brazilian jazz.
look for the track "aldeia de ogum" by joyce, one of my absolutely all time favorite tracks.

i love this music too, but i've found it really hard to find the good stuff. i keep buying these records thinking it will be ok, but a lot of this stuff is too western-pop-y. i want the authentic records. i guess i'll check out your list

i was able to buy a brazilian release from an individual on amazon, if you know the artist name you can get stuff that is not released outside of brazil. the packaging was super cheap (very low quality paper) but the cd sounds decent.
here's another source you might find useful:

well by all means check em out, but i sort of like a lot of them because they are poppy, honestly. i think the brazillian cannibalization of psychedelic pop (and rock) is pretty wikkid. stuff like Gilberto Gil's albums from the late 60s compare favourably with the more ambitious efforts from peeps like the Beatles et. al.
i've been going through a bit of a pop renaissance of late... obviously a bit more twisted stuff, but still...

pz - ok, thanks for the tip
deadeight - i know they're all poppy, but the stuff that sounds like american pop imitating brazilian music is what drives me crazy. so i don't want anymore of that.
