"One listen will tell you that these are party people! Bossa Nova? forget about it...this is Kátia Nova! If you can't go to Brasil then get this CD. If you've already been to Rio, then get this CD and refresh your memory ! Kátia and Gurus of Samba take you through a tour of the rich Brazilian musical traditions. Where's my pandiero? But what's even better is how the group infuses their songs with other World Music forms. Check out Tanta Saudade and Mãe Africa on Disc 2. If you are fortunate enough to catch a live performance, you'll really be hooked. More energy than a capoeira exhibition. You might even learn to samba. Gosto muito!"
