ritual beating system.......2003-10-29

ok..ok..I the FINEST music I have heard of its kind.The soulful vocals of Carlinhos Brown are fabulous!!I have since collected his solo work,as well as some of his collaborators..i.e...
Marisa Monte and Arnaldo Antunes......music that makes you swoon.
Music that makes your body sway and flow..in the natural rythms of life...this music is tribal as well as melodic....floating jazz melodies over pounding synchopated beats..absolutely GREAT!
A perfect synthesis of Brasilian and Western styles.BUY IT NOW!!

You'll probably wear it out........2003-01-26

This is my 5 star album of 1996. Now, I basically hate it. It's SO catchy and danceable that one cannot resist the temptation to play it out through extreme overuse. I mean, I played it at parties, in my car, for friends, for strangers, in my walkman, high, drunk, sober, I transcribed the parts I could on guitar and basically reinvented my whole personal aesthetic around this album. Picture Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter jamming with James Brown, and "Rhythm of the Saints" era Paul Simon, with a smooth Brazillian Samba/Forro singer, and you sort of get the picture. It works as musician's music, dance music, make-out music, background conversation music, and on and on. It's just that eventually you will get SICK of it. Still, I have no regrets whatsoever. Highly recommended!

Very cool, you cannot keep still while listening to this........1998-10-07

I heard this album a year ago and have been looking for it ever since. Imagine the looks I get when I ask for The Ritual Beating System! I'm so happy I found it here! This is a great album, very fun. Let loose and enjoy!
