| The Magic of Brazilian Music "Airto-Promises Of the Sun", featuring Airto Moreira: percussion, Milton Nascimento and Flora Purim vocals, is classic and magic Brazilian music. | |
| Happy 90th Mr. Brubeck "Jazz Impressions of Eurasia" is an overlooked gem by the DBQ, that's killer. | |
| Mr. Moody "Last Train From Overbrook" was my favorite by Mr. Moody. When I hear it, I can see that train chugging down the tracks. | |
