A1 Brenda - Natureza Viva A2 Rosana - Alegria No Ar B1 Junior Mendes - Copacabana Sadia B2 Sergio Mallandro - Vem Fazer Glu-Glu DESCRIPTION: Great loud-pressed vinyl EP featuring a superlative selection of Brazilian boogie monsters from the early 80s. Opens with Brenda�s amazing modern funk club killer �Natureza Viva�, originally released on an impossible-to-find 7� and produced by Don Beto (of �Nossa Imagina��o� LP fame). Next is another great boogie cut �Alegria No Ar� by Rosana plucked from her highly sought-after self-titled album released in 1983. Recorded with some of the best exponents of the early 80s Brazilian boogie scene including Jorj�o from Banda Black Rio, Azymuth�s Mam�o plus legendary duo Lincoln Olivetti and Robson Jorge, this is pure bass-heavy dancefloor dynamite. Flip over for the wonderful �Copacabana Sadia� by Junior Mendes, a track also touched by the hand of the prolific Olivetti who was in charge of arrangement here producing an elegant slice of upbeat smooth jazz-funk. Title track of Mendes� mega-rare 1982 LP, this cut simply oozes class. Last but not least is �Vem Fazer Glu-Glu� which takes the Earth, Wind and Fire classic �Let�s Groove� and ramps up the Latino disco feel taking it to a whole new dimension. Great collection - don�t miss!
