My mind has been blown. You are a fool if you don't cop this. Serious knowledge dropped both in the movie and throughout the special features disc.

I just watched the J.Rocc Apache routine again, and the part where Wilson Das Neves comes onstage.
Hey B, you should read Why is this Country Dancing. It's one man's chronicle of travelling through Brazil in search of musicians. Really gets into the culture as well. It was recommended to me not too long ago and I finished it in one sitting. With all the music I've been picking up, this book, the learning Portuguese CDs in my car, and the Capoeira lessons... I'm quite ready to make the trip south.
I have less than a year until I go, I can't wait. Thanks for the book reccomendation, can't wait to check it out.
