dear friends, as i was on vacations for a long time (35 days) i've missed the first 2 editions of the blindfold test. is Brazil covered by any distributor? i´ve already sent an email to Jim with my coordinates but i assume i´m the only one in south america on this board so i will understand if the answer is negative. i loved the concept of the idea!! i will try to get the previous editions with a kind member of the board all the best Marcus Oliveira

the mosaic select of Duke Pearson!! it's so hard to wait.... Marcus

Marcus Oliveira

Hi! as a Harper Brothers fan, i have all albums from Stephen as a leader. i would like to have some great recommendations of his work as a sidemen he is the regular piano player on Ron Carter´s band so i´m familiar with his work there. i look forward to hear from all of you as i do respect a lot your advises peace Marcus Oliveira

i won't compare it to any previous work by Miles but i really think Siesta it's a beautiful album. i would love to have it duly remastered. peace Marcus Oliveira

well, i went to his concert here in Rio for the first time and i was very excited when he started the first notes of So What. Ron is one of my heroes in jazz since i was a kid listening to all the CTI output. concert was great and i was lucky enough to chat a little bit with Stephen Scott (a favorite of mine too) after the gig. i would recommend his double album released by 32jazz where he is joined by Houston Person " The Complete Muse Sessions" peace Marcus Oliveira

Horace Silver´s Peace from Blowin' The Blues Away. i´m always humming this melody peace Marcus Oliveira

Prince!

effectively it´s hard to describe but i can guarantee that you can´t say WOW at the end. it is true that the last part is nasalized due to the accent employed (João) but WOW in english has a different sound than "ão" in portuguese. if i manage to find something similar i´ll post here peace Marcus Oliveira

VV Box!

hi Dan, Jazzshrink & Kulu i´m opened to proposals anyway, Dan thanks a lot for all your help. i will check cdbaby website to confirm if they accept my credit card. regards Marcus Oliveira

well, it´s kinda easy to understand why this album means so much to me Bossa Nova started its influence on 1958 with the release of Joao Gilberto´s single "Chega de Saudade". at this time, Brazil was living a period where major decisions about the future of this country were taken and an economic boom leaded to a creative and fertile period for music, cinema & arts. Joao Gilberto is responsible for a revolution on brazilian music with his unique way to perform a song and he was compared to Chet Baker for his cool voice. Jobim & Newton Mendonça were responsible for several lyrics, based on simple ideas developed beautifully confirmed by tunes such as Corcovado, So Danço Samba, Vivo Sonhando i was 8 years old when i heard for the first time Getz/Gilberto album. as a fan of Creed Taylor´s work and inspired by the curiosity of Bossa Nova played on a jazz mood, i requested to my father to get it for me. Stan quickly became a hero for me and "Jazz Samba" album was an obvious next step on this Jazz-Bossa Nova discovery. last year i finally got both of them on CD as part of the VME series and the same pleasure i had when i was 8 came back once again. Viva a Bossa Nova!!! peace Marcus Oliveira ps:i would like to apologize for some mistakes on my english, that's why i always try to keep my messages short but this AOW really touched me

Dan, i can wait, no problem at all. thanks for your kindness btw peace Marcus Oliveira
