Strongly agree with the above, especially the Cal Tjader album =
(talkin' verve) and would add the following:
Tambores Urbanos by Bor=E9, S=E9rgio (Instinct)
Quelle Aventure! by No S=E9 (Instinct)
Psycodelico by Reminiscence Quartet (Instinct)
Descarga Mambito by Snowboy & the Latin Section (Acid Jazz)
Soul Bossa Trio by Soul Bossa Trio (Ubiquity/Cubop)
Jazz Com Bossa by Various Artists (Instinct)
Red Hot + Rio by Various (contemporary) Artists (Red Hot)
Nova Bossa (companion album to Red Hot + Rio with classic versions =
from Impulse!)
Bossa Beach by Various Artists (great stuff from the Italian Irma La =
Douce label)
