Five man, one woman Brazilian quintet BR6 is back, and we are very, very happy to hear it! This impossibly smooth, talented, incredibly arranged a cappella group wowed us with their first album, 'Rio A Cappella,' then again with a stellar cover album, 'Here To Stay.' Now we hold in our hot little hands 'Musica Popular Brasileira A Cappella Vol. II,' (basically, a cappella covers of Brazilian Pop Music), with all the liner notes and song titles in Spanish, and we're sitting here with headphones on, just digging on all this sweet, sexy, salsa-flavored a cappella music! 12 songs, including one of our favorite Idea of North covers, 'Mas Que Nada,' a jazzy, vocal instrumental song called 'Surfboard' that would make the Swingles proud, some silly, fairly wonderful faux horns on 'Diexe a Manina,' the haunting 'Beijo Partido,' the vocal percussion and faux horns Jazz gem 'Nao Vou Ficar,' the breezy, bluenote 'Retrato da Vida' and 'Eu Quero um Samba,' which is impossible not to dance to! Every cut here is big fun, great jazzy stuff, and it didn't even cross our minds that we didn't understand the words. Don't miss this long-awaited collection from one of South America's best!
