i loooooove tom waits. unclassifiable. he's just... tom waits

béla bartók, bach, liszt, rachmaninov... some opera, i lived in vienna and went regularly. there's still stuff i hate, like most wagner and aida and carmina burana, but some are wonderful like oedipus rex and nabucco and salomé.


moomies, check out the brazilian classics: antonio carlos jobim, joao and astrud gilberto, caetano veloso, chico buarque, vinicius de moraes, toquinho, baden powell, jorge ben, maria bethania... 'jazz samba', the stan getz/gilberto album is a must, as well as vinicius de moraes en 'la fusa', a great live album with toquinho and maria creuza

if you want something more recent, check out seu jorge's album. he played pele in the life aquatic, he was the one singing bowie songs in portuguese. his stuff's a bit funkier.
