i think it goes w/o saying, but then what do i know?

there's always "o samba-brazil classics 2" the david byrne comp, & there's
stuff on "wild orchid orginal soundtrack" worth listening to. a buddy of mine
has some samba school records that i have to find. will post later w/titles.
btw "o samba" is on luaka bop/sire/warner & "orchid" is on sire/warner.
