Sinister: eh? bossanova?

[João Henrique Horst]

Actually THERE WAS some bossa-nova on the lists.

If not the classic João & Astrud Gilberto/Antonio Carlos (Tom) Jobim/Nara
Leão/Edu Lobo stuff, we had Strereolab, Everything But The Girl and others,
not to mention them - what would a slower version of "Ease Your Feet..." be
but a piece of bossa-nova at its most traditional ? By the way, "Troubles
come and troubles go/The trouble that we've come to know/Will stay with us
till we get old/..." could almost be a translation of "Tristeza não tem
fim/Felicidade sim", couldn't it Ivo/Tara ?

Suggestions ? Sure. Dig for Red Hot + Rio and Nova Bossa - Red Hot On Verve.
Both are worth listening if you're interested in that kind of sound.

And I'll never be the same
Someting so pure
Hey !
Just called my name"
