Howlin' Wolf- Moanin' In The Moonlight-****
July- S/T- ***

Nara Leao- Nara Pede Passagem-**** 1/2

Oh my - in this house it’s not only going to be a matter of playing Audience With The Queen everyday, more like how many days will it be before I listen to anything else.

Irma is still in as strong of a voice as she was on the Newvelle release from 5 years ago. Best thing Galactic has done in at least a decade. That Miles Davis album I had as a teen and started my fascination with Spain, and looked where that landed me. And, Nara Leao is one of my all time favorites.
