    just wanted to give a heads up to any of you feeling
    the brazilian thing (i don't think anyone else has
    mentioned it, so i thought i would).
    i picked up the compilation "black rio" last weekend
    and i haven't stopped listening to it. it's on the
    strut label and is compiled by dj cliffy--this guy has
    got to have the best rare brazilian collection of
    anyone! anyhow, the comp is full of amazing 70s black
    brazilian funk and soul (i'd never heard of about 80%
    of the musicians). the killer for me is the funkiest
    brazilian style rendition of "rapper's delight."
    everyone i've played it for goes nuts. just get it.
    you won't be disappointed!

    ps--also got a copy of the MAW remix of nina simone's
    "see-line woman" and it's really nice! they did a
    great job with a classic track without making it too
    housey or screwing with it too much. i think they
    added just the right bits--any other opinions?
