The Case of the Anniversary Brazilian Wave
This week I am again celebrating our first year of broadcasting with a special anniversary show, this time on the theme of Brazil. I will be showcasing some of the material I played in my first ever Brazilian theme show, including some of my all-time favorite tracks from artists including Jorge Ben, Gilberto Gil, Marcos Valle, and Tim Maia.
The first hour of today's set is focused on the 60s and early 70s... we will hear a sunny blend of Bossa Nova and Pop Samba in the early going, then we will dip into some moodier material as we near the top of the hour.
The second hour of today's set is focused on late 70s and early 80s. This set begins with some rambunctious percussion-driven folk rock sounds, then progresses through psychedelic Tropicalia into some boss disco sounds of the Funk Black Rio movement.
Witness the effortless swing of the Brazilian beat as we hear some of the country's greatest funky hits of the 60s and 70s.
