"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari

I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery

"Produced alongside Tropicália veteran Manoel Barenbein, Carlos, Erasmo (1971) is one of the great late echoes of the Tropicalia movement. Although Erasmo was never officially a tropicalista, the album brings together an extraordinary cast of musicians and collaborators from that world, including Os Mutantes' Sérgio Dias, Dinho Leme, and Liminha, as well as legendary psychedelic guitarist Lanny Gordin. Arrangements by Rogério Duprat add another unmistakable Tropicalia touch. The album opens with 'De Noite na Cama,' a Caetano Veloso composition written especially for Erasmo, and immediately establishes its restless, sensual, and slightly subversive atmosphere. From there, the record moves freely between fuzzy psychedelic rock, soul and funk, sophisticated pop, tender love songs, and Brazilian grooves, never settling into a single style. Erasmo also revisits his celebrated songwriting partnership with Roberto Carlos while embracing compositions by Caetano Veloso, Jorge Ben, and Marcos Valle, turning Carlos, Erasmo into something of an all-star meeting point for the most creative currents in Brazilian popular music of the era. The record's psychedelic edge is especially striking distorted guitars, unconventional arrangements, eccentric production choices, and moments that seem to drift beautifully off course. 'Maria Joana,' it's famously provocative marijuana ode, became one of the album's most talked-about tracks, while songs such as 'Agora Ninguém Chora Mais,' Marcos Valle's original '26 Anos de Vida Normal,' 'Ciça Cecília,' 'Mundo Deserto,' 'Sodoma e Gomorra,' and 'Masculino Feminino' reveal the remarkable breadth of Erasmo's musical vision. More than simply a psychedelic detour in Erasmo Carlos' career, Carlos, Erasmo stands as a landmark of early-'70s Brazilian rock. It is rawer and harder-rocking than much of his catalog, yet equally capable of intimacy, soulfulness, humor, and experimentation. A record where Jovem Guarda, Tropicalia, rock, soul, and Brazil's emerging counterculture collide -- and where Erasmo Carlos sounds completely at home in the chaos. Pressed on 180g vinyl." - Vampi Soul
