Review Comments: Quality, complex compositions... Look forward to feeling transported to a place of purest sunlight, warm breezes, lush flowers and turquoise water... This CD is one lovely song after another. Very romantic- I have purchased other putamayo CD's but not one of them is as consistently great as this one. Put this CD on for a drive through the countryside, a dinner party with good friends are as an inspiration for creativity.
Enjoy!
WOW!

Review Comments: I bought this from Amazon as a gift for a friend who loves everything "BRAZIL". She loves the music and said it makes her feel as if she's back in Brazil. I'm glad she enjoys it, so I say it's a good buy.

Review Comments: I'm a big fan of South American Music. As a whole, I'm a big fan of Putumayo Present products. Brazilian Cafe doesn't disappoint. Smoothy, jazzy, and calming, I often enjoy this CD while working on photography related activities. Excellent mood music with a splash of energy.
Another nice Brazilian Putumayo collection

"Putumayo Presents: Brazilian Cafe"
(Putumayo, 2009)
--------------------------------------------------
A mellow, acoustic-oriented set of modern Brazilian ballads. For the most part this is a collection of less well-known artists, which I personally appreciate, since I'm always on the look for something new to explore. The album kicks off with a relatively restrained track by the MPB superstar Djavan, and after that the next most famous artist is guitarist-vocalist Rosa Passos. All the tracks are quite nice, and this is another wonderfully listenable collection from Putumayo, not gooey or cloying crossover stuff, but a rather classy collection that knowledgeably explores the contemporary Brazilian acoustic scene. The current trad-samba revival is represented by Teresa Cristina and Ana Costa (two great artists whose work is well worth tracking down) while more pop and bossa-oriented music is also well represented. Nice record; definitely worth a spin! (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Guide To Brazilian Music)
