Canto de Ossanha

Soulrocket just made me aware of the fact that Jurassic 5 are no longer with us (as a group... mind ya).Which gave me an ideal idea for a cover post: Their version of Baden Powell's ??Canto de Ossanha??.SO cool of them to cover this tune!The original is here:

(Does anybody have the Elis Regina/Toots Thieleman version? Mine is copy-protected :P)

mickimicki says Glad you like them, tangerman and Dzen. Baden Powell was one of the most amazing Brazilian guitarists... Check out his bio here in Wikipedia.

ivylander says Micki., both these are great. Jurassic 5 gets maxiumum respect taste points not only for taking this on, but also getting it right. (There are way too many clueless covers of "Ossanha" from Brazilian singers who ought to know better.) Though you might like hearing what I'd always thought was the original, from Baden and Vinicius's "Os Afrosambas."

mickimicki says Damn, I guess you're right. I _was_ wondering where Elis Regina got the lyrics from ;) Her version is not one of the clueless ones though... like you -probably- certainly know... Fantastic!
