ASTRUD GILBERTO

Talking about Astrud. When building the basis of this Jazz Den, we were very pleasantly surprised by finding Astrud's personal web page. So happy we are ever since that we decided to pay homage to this wonderful voice and persona of the Brazilian lands. Here's a very good picture. If you don't fall in love, you don't. If you do, join the club, and learn to feel the pain at the rhythm of bossa. I take this opportunity to say that it is my intention to push our chief editor of contents Mr Xeno up to unbearable limits, so that he writes an essay on the common cultural coordinates of Jazz and Popular Brazilian Music (samba and bossa nova) in the context of the black people's freedom from slavery.

ACOUSTIC LADYLAND

After a storming presentation on TV, we've been craving for this. Now JazzDen is in legal possession of the last acoustic ladyland cd.

We are eagerly waiting for our chief editor Mr Xenon returning from his break in France to write a review on this album.
