Funky Rio: Rhodes, Sanfonas and Cuicas

Here are some groove heavy tunes that I think you all will enjoy from 1970's Rio. Samba, Batucada, Samba-funk, Funked-up Forro are all in the mix. One of the threads that ties this collection of songs together is the bass playing of Moacyr Albuquerque. Moacyr is one of Brazil's heaviest bass players and recorded with everybody from Gil to Chico Buarque. Check it out and let me know what you think....
