Hi! 30 minutes ago i got this email too from Mosaic and i´m still excited with the idea of a Mosaic Select on Duke Pearson!!!! this has been a great year so far!!! i know Curtis Amy only from Katanga but i really like this album, i think it´s my favorite one on the WCC series. i´ll be glad to be introduced to more of his work!! Life is so beautiful peace Marcus Oliveira

Hi! i´m the only one so far who voted for The Soothsayer peace Marcus Oliveira

HI! unfortunately we don´t have any Barnes & Noble down here in Rio de Janeiro i´m looking specifically for the BNRG edition. i won't give up peace Marcus Oliveira

Hi! i was listening this morning to Mobley's Straight No Filter and it´s a Roques one too peace Marcus Oliveira

Hi guys, i need some help with this one!! thanks in advance Marcus Oliveira

Hi! Jacknife concept for me is really really fine. Comin´On is also great, even íf i´m kinda repetitive saying that i love this album my overall impression on Roques covers/work is that they fit on BN concept and BN legacy is well represented. peace! Marcus Oliveira

Hi! i voted for Into Somethin' from Larry Young but my favorite one is the cover for Spring´s Tony Williams. simple, straight and damn beautiful peace! Marcus Oliveira

Congrats sheldon!!! peace Marcus Oliveira

HI! title says it all thanks for any help peace Marcus Oliveira

Hi Lon, Ed just released a new album. he has been recently in Japan doing a tour with Incognito. he plays on one track on their latest album (Cada Dia) i´ve met him 2 times and he is a close friend to other 2 friends of mine. he is a compulsive vynil buyer!! he started his career deeply involved with funk & r&b but now he´s trying to be acessible on pop & instrumental charts. do you know Joao Donato, a brazilian piano player?? i think you´re gonna love him too peace Marcus Oliveira

another quick note: he switched his artistic name to Benjor to avoid misunderstandings on musical rights with George Benson. sometimes he was paid for Benson´s tunes and vice-versa! Marcus Oliveira

just a quick note: effectively Jorge won the claim and donated the money to charitative institutions. Rod Stewart was here in Rio in 1978 and listened to a tremendous hit from Jorge "Taj Mahal" and flt in love with the chorus and then we know the rest... Salve Jorge! Marcus Oliveira

Hi! guys, i need to get into this conversation Jorge Ben (or Benjor nowadays) is one of my beloved heroes!! i should recommend his last album "MTV Unplugged" also on DVD!! marvellous music where he reunites his former band "Admiral Jorge V" to play some old tunes and his actual band for the hits. he plays acoustic guitar for the first time since 1975 on this one. this album "Samba Esquema Novo" is a landmark on brazilian music and it has been recently reissued here as many others from Ben before he switched to electric guitar. i´m really happy that Ben´s music still touches people around the world Salve Simpatia! Marcus Oliveira

Hi! i love Dream Weaver!! had this on vynil and used to hear the Autumn Leaves Suite lots of times is this available on CD and inprint? peace Marcus Oliveira
