    Bartleby says I must confess I've never heard of Djavan before - your selection makes me want to investigate further. A compelling voice and caressing guitar. Thanks for the introductory offer.

    DLuebbert says This is an untypical voice for Djavan. Usually he's singing in front of a band, with lots of instrumental accompaniment. Early on, he admired the Beatles a lot. What I most like about him is that he changes rhythm fluently as he sings. To me it sounds like he thinks of his voice as a percussion instrument. He also will do vocal improvisations, like jazz scat singing, during interludes in the middle of songs, while he's doing the introduction and as he leaves songs. I think the man is a very admirable musician.
