On this second volume of The Rough Guide To Latin Rare Groove, we’ve gone deeper to unearth even more treats for collectors of obscure, funky, tropical dance music. While taking the ‘rare groove’ genre too seriously can get you accused of snobbery or being a nerd, there is something to be said for the thrill of discovery and sharing something new, especially if it’s old and made of vinyl (even better if it was never originally released to begin with). So proceed without shame, dear digger. Just because ‘rare groove’ owes its name to the 1980s London club scene, where it was used to describe obscure soul, funk and jazz, doesn’t mean the movement is just some passing fad or even entirely new to Latin music fans – quite the contrary.

This 1998 release by Brazilian percussion god Dom Um Ramao marks his first solo recording in more than 30 years. Romao has been an in-demand session player since the mid-'60s and was one of the founding members of Weather Report. His own albums on the late, great Muse label, one named eponymously and the other entitled Spirit of the Times, were rhythm orgies that pasted together all of the traditions he'd worked in up until that time: from Sergio Mendes and Sinatra to Flora, Airto, and Weather Report. Rhythm Traveler is a return, of sorts, in that it is an engagement with Brazilian song forms from both folk musics and popular song, all translated through a jazzman's manner of hearing.

With his explosive soloing and inventive five conga patterns, Cuban musician Miguel "Angá" Díaz was one of the world's great congueros. Echu Mingua, his debut album as a bandleader, is an innovative set. Angá saw this project as representing his journey in music—from learning at the feet of traditional rumba masters in his rural village, to joining the foremost experimental band in Cuba Irakere, his sojourns with innovative US jazz musicians Steve Coleman and Roy Hargrove, then back to his roots with the Afro-Cuban All Stars, Rubén González, and opening doors with the great Cuban bassist Cachaíto López.

Not many artists have immersed themselves in quite the cultural combination that Concord Special Products has assembled for the Colors of Latin Jazz series. This six-CD series captures the sweet, hot, happy, and rhythmic joys of Latin jazz. Colors of Latin Jazz: Corcovado! is the perfect culmination for the initial offerings of this splendid and exciting series. The perfect nightcap is the sweet voice of Karrin Allyson originally heard on Daydream and here on "Corcovado." She's as soft as the tear of a raindrop. Her serene essence is heard again in Portuguese singing Caetano Veloso's "Coracao Vagabundo," a soft bossa nova originally issued on From Paris to Rio.

Mitch, un giornalista ossessionato dal sesso, convince Natalie, una escort laureata a Stanford, a permettergli di seguirla in giro per un reportage che sta scrivendo per una rivista.

Quello che inizia come un semplice rapporto d'affari ben presto si trasformerà in una forte amicizia, che farà capire loro come le loro esistenze funzionino meglio insieme.

L’America Latina è un continente senza porte, in cui le strade si trasformano in impervi sentieri che si biforcano in diramazioni labirintiche. Mappare la sua letteratura appare impresa improba, rinchiuderla in confini nazionali riduttivo, non inseguire i legami tra autori apparentemente distanti sarebbe un peccato. Per fortuna, Guerra – scrittore incaricato di redigere un saggio sulla letteratura latinoamericana – ha le chiavi d’accesso dell’Istituto, enclave onirica in cui dimorano tutti gli scrittori dell’America Latina. Nei suoi corridoi si aggirano, emaciati e con gli occhi febbricitanti, autori sconosciuti e boriosi premi Nobel, poeti disperati e scrittori visionari di racconti brevi, ma soprattutto il temibile Direttore dell’Istituto, lo scrittore più grande di tutti, padre da uccidere e spietato Tiresia..
