Brazilian-influenced global jazz-funk rarities from 1976–1984

Charles Maurice returns with Volume 2 of *Fusion Global Sounds*—a deep-digging compilation of rare jazz-funk and fusion tracks with a strong Brazilian touch. Sourced from Brazil, the Philippines, Poland, the Netherlands, and the US, these 8 cuts span tropical jazz fusion, MPB-influenced groove, and smoky Fender Rhodes-heavy instrumentals. Expect deep horn sections, warm synths, and irresistible basslines throughout. Standouts include two tracks by Brazilian saxophonist Nivaldo Ornelas, plus the opening gem by Filipino vocalist Lerma Dela Cruz—each previously pressed only in scarce regional editions. Essential for lovers of global fusion, jazz-funk, and overlooked grooves. Ships fast Australia-wide.
