Som Imaginario - Banda Da Capital (Live in Brasilia, 1976) CD “Som Imaginário are the stuff of MPB mythos.

Brötzmann, Peter- Catching Ghosts CD "Catching Ghosts by revered, iconoclastic 81-year-old reedist Peter Brötzmann with Moroccan Gnaoua adept Majid Bekkas playing two-stringed, camelskin-backed guembre and Chicago-bred drummer Hamid Drake, proves that "free" spontaneous interactions deriving power from age-old traditions can transcend cultural lines.
