Mitchell & Ruff - A Viagem (1966)

I had this record in my collection but I never take the deserved attention to it, you know that, two American musicians making Bossa Nova with Brazilian musicians, recording in Brazil...

When I received from Caetano Rodrigues his wonderful Bossa Nova book, came to my attention that this record was highlighted on a whole page with Caetano's own comments. So I decided to give it a new try and since then I'm blaming myself everyday for not taking this LP in consideration earlier, thanks to Caetano for it.

Thanks also Mr. X that without knowing this story has recently provided a high quality vinyl rip of Mitchell & Ruff - A Viagem (1966), for Forma to Loronixers. Where everything matches, working is very easy. I will let you with personnel listing and tracks; take a special consideration to this unique release.
