Stellar Samba Jazz LP combining classic Brazilian melodies and the rhythms of the Orixas.Second solo album from acclaimed drummer Stéphane San Juan, long-time drummer for Amadou & Mariam and percussionist for Bernard Purdie. Stéphane is currently drummer and percussionist on David Byrne's world tour.Produced by Stéphane and recorded almost entirely in Rio de Janeiro, "Saved By The Drums" is dedicated to the great Brazilian drum and percussion master Wilson das Neves (1936-2017). The legendary "rhythmist" of the Impera Serrano, one of the most traditional Samba schools in Rio, participated in many of the most important Samba Jazz and MPB albums and accompanied Chico Buarque for nearly 3 decades. Stéphane calls him "my spiritual father".'He was the person who encouraged me from the beginning to deepen not only my passion for Brazilian music, but especially my creative work as a songwriter,' he says. Mr. Wilson, in turn, described Stéphane as 'the most Brazilian French I have met' and used to compliment him for his mastery of local rhythms, highlighting their shared African origins.Wilson das Neves died in August 2017, but had the time to lend the immense charisma of his octogenarian voice for the song 'The day the favela will come down and it will not be the carnival', the version Stéphane made of the classic piece of the samba, 'O Dia Em Que O Morro Descer E Não For Carnaval'. Stéphane's version maintains the strength of the political message in the French translation, and was duly approved by the famous lyricist Paulo César Pinheiro. 'Wilson wanted to take me to his house to show him the verses in French,' Stéphane recalls. The percussion in the track is managed by another name of noble lineage: Armando Marcal, grandson of Marcal (1902-1947), one of the pioneering composers of samba and son of Master Marcal (1930-1994), legendary director of drums and samba schools.To the musical blessings of Wilson das Neves are added others, as, from the opening, the 8 minute tour de force of 'Elegua', so named in connection with the first deity for whom drums are playd in the worship of Yoruba ancestors. If Wilson is the one who guided Stéphane to Ifa, his initiation to the hand of Orunmila and the ceremony were made by Zero Telles, another great percussionist in Rio, known for his deep knowledge of religious rhythms. It is he who calls the Orixas (Yoruba saints) in the introduction of the song, formatted in song after the initial third.

An Amazing product, that works
Color: Green, Size: 1 Pack
I bought the (Rite in the Rain - Green Tactical Note Book (All Weather) for my line of work with the sheriffs department. And when your note taking can be the difference between your job and keeping someone bad off the streets, it's important to ensure that your notes are going not only to last, but handle all situations (like weather). I recieved my notebook about 5 days ago, and decided to give it a try, First I noticed it looked and almost felt like ordinary paper, but with a more thick quality with it. I began to write simple phrases on the first page with a variety of writing utensils, I tried an ordinary pen, a pencil, a 0.5mm pen and pencil, ballpoint pens, and so on. Then I tore out the first page which was as easy if not easier than an ordinary notebook.
I took it over to the sink area and began to run water on the paper, for about 2 minutes the water beaded off the paper with ease, i turned the water off and examined the paper, it was only wet on the surface, i wiped the excess water off and perfect, it felt like the original paper with no signs of any water damage.
This is a great product for someone who may work in an outdoor environment or just near water I highly Recommend this product to anyone in the market for a notebook that not only has quality but is resistant to everyday situations, thanks (Rite in the Rain) for making a great product.
