Link to the Show / Show NotesThis podcast features some great tracks with one thing in common - mellow grooves! Antonio Adolfo & Brazuca's Festival sound contributes Claudia and sets the tone for some great 60s funky mellowness. Joao Donato joined Bossa Rio for their tour of japan in 69 and this is a great version of Bad Company's Come And Get It. Brasilia Modern Six stay with the intertnational cover theme and a hip version of Bacharach & David's Say A Little Prayer. Doris Monteiro covers paulo Diniz's first nordestino groove hit andthe great Ed Lincoln comes up with his blues swing (Balanco Azul). Legendary chanteuse Elis Regina recorded A Time For Love in London with Scott Walker's Arranger Reg Knight. Studio session group Formula 7 bring in Simplesmente and army funksters Fuzi 9 come up trumps with their weird Hebrew sounding Haiakaiam! Italian based percussion legend Mandrake has a cool version Jobim's Estrada do Sol and Pedrinho Mattar is joined by the wonderful Tita on her Nirvana. Durval Ferreira / Orlandivo side project As Quentes do Patropi cover Jorge Ben & Toquinho's Que Maravilha whilst Osmar Milito backing group Quarteto Forma 7" rarity A Ilha is followed by Raul de Souza's laconic funk version of Herbie Hancock's Seminal Cantaloupe Island - Brasil by Mellow Groove!
