Another group from Oregon. I've seen them 4 times now. Incredible!!!!!
Check out all their videos.
Stan Getz and Astrid were hot back in the day! She had the audience eating out of her hand!
These guys are clearly on the same wavelength and really good! Brazilian all the way!
My daughter Heather lives in Natal. Brazil, her and her husband Gandhi both teach at university there, she music (graduate of Berklee in Boston and Wesleyan) and Gandhi in physics, Phd from Boston U.

I used to live in Denver and they came through town and one of the members, Janis Hansen, came to our apartment building to visit one of her friends and I was introduced, very pretty girl AND she plays chess! We played a game! I was in heaven! I never got to meet Sergio though. Janis was enough!

Originally posted by galveston75Yeah, they all had great voices for sure. I was still into Dylan, Baez, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell, Pete Seeger, Reverand Gary Davis, Doc Watson, Caroline Hester, Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, The Weavers, Limeliters, Peter Paul and Mary, Pentangle, Woody Guthrie, Ledbelly, Sonny Terry and Brownie Mcgee, Mississppi John Hurt, Backwards Sam Firk, Mike Seeger and the New Lost City Ramblers, they had more soul to me than any other kind of music.

I loved your two links Sonhouse and galveston. I saw a brilliant dueo at the underground theater last month, they had jokes and stories in song and one played his strange guitar that was kinda a post and elastic- anyway I expect even if I could rememebr their name I'd not be able to find a clip....but here's a link to clips of acts that played, some are really good-

And I haven't seen Fahrenheit 451 in years and have actually forgotten that movie. I'll have to track it down and watch it again....

Originally posted by yo its meIt is with some irony that I notice that soap operas (the popular TV shows in Fahrenheit 451) are phasing out and so-called "reality-TV" is phasing in.

CNN is a lot more "real" than "reality-TV".
