Roots That Bear Rich Fruits!
09/08/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"First off: this is not a "various artists" CD. Grupo Batuque is a collective of veteran Brazilian percussionists, drummers and musicians assembled by Joe Davis of the great Far Out label. This, their third album, is emphatically recommended to anyone interested in Capoeira dancing, or who conducts or attends dance classes with an emphasis on African dancing. This is a rootsy percussion-centric masterpiece guaranteed to strike a chord with all those that way inclined. It's also a great reminder of just how African-rooted Brazilian culture really is. Aspiring percussionists are also strongly advised to invest in this CD ASAP. It's a MUST!!!"
