UNFORGETABLE MOMENTS
In 1979 I had the pleasure of meeting in Rio de Janeiro a new songwriter called Fatima Guedes. This talented human being that I so much admire, visited Los Angeles in 1990's and performed at La Ve Lee in Studio City. Her first recording was produced and arranged by Bossa Nova icons: Roberto Menescal and Oscar Castro Neves. Here's a link to Fátima's "Mais uma Boca" (One More Mouth) from 1980.

FOR YOU
"Eu tô te explicando
Prá te confundir
Eu tô te confundindo
Prá te esclarecer
Tô iluminado
Prá poder cegar
Tô ficando cego
Prá poder guiar"
I'm explaining to confuse you
I'm making you confused to clarify
I'm illuminated so I can get blind
I'm getting blind so I can guide
(Quote of a song by Tom Zé)
OH, YEAH, POLITICS! Jimmy Fallon and James Taylor:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0uX36AczW0
Peace nd Joy!
