Ok, 4 more:

1. Colors Music: Rio Funk (Irma Records 2005)
Yes, all songs sound pretty similar, but some brainless funky fun
is always welcome

2. Cansei de Ser Sexy: Cansei de Ser Sexy (Trama Records 2005)
Brazilian Electro. More fun, fun, fun! Thanks to Marky Ruffie for bringing
this from Brazil. I will be there, in Rio, in a couple of weeks.

3. Rita Lee: "Aqui, Ali, Em Cualquer Lugar" (Universal 2001)
It seems like I am in a Brazilian mood lately. This one Silvio brought me
from Brazil. We are noth Rita Lee fans, and he was upset to find it it was
a Beatles cover album (there is no info outside the CD), but her blend of
brazilian rhtyhms with Beatles' meodies works wonderfully ... sometimes.
Other times, it sounds like a mere loungey tribute album to the Beatles.

4. Rhtyhm Heritage: Discofied (ABC 1976)
A gem from my scavenging ventures. Got this huge batch of vynil records at
a carboot sale. They were around fifty disco records in very, very bad
shape. it seems like they had been in humid storage for ages, and some of
the carton sleeves were completely desroyed, but the records were still in
very good shape, once I cleaned the, this one is my current fave. Huge
groovews, very funky. an excellent reason to keep a turntable in my living
room.

"Scientists sometimes deceive themselves into thinking that philosophical
ideas are only, at best, decorations or parasitic commentaries on the hard
objective triumphs of science, but there is no such thing as philosophy-free science; there is only science whose philosophical baggage
is taken on board without examination"

"I wish to propose for the reader's favourable consideration a doctrine
which may, I fear, appear wildly paradoxical and subversive. The doctrine
in question is this: that it is undesirable to believe in a proposition
when there is no ground whatever for supposing it true."
