Zuzuca
Out of Brazil comes Zuzuca with 'O Trem',
which translates as 'The Train', a fact that
won't surprise you when you hear the tune.
It's taken from the 1972 LP 'O Bom Sambista',
released on the famous Okeh label and is
insanely catchy - even as a confirmed non-
dancer, I, unconsciously and ultimately
unsuccessfully, found myself trying to throw
some shapes when it popped up on random play
a couple of days ago. Not a pretty sight.

One for Old Ma I think...not unpleasant at all!
Lovely. Seems we're all getting dance fever. Brazil beats will be everywhere in the next few weeks.
