Bola Sete was a Brazilian guitarist who played mainly jazz music on nylon-string acoustic guitar. He also made some solo instrumental records. I used to have the Ocean record, which was once on LP on George Winston's Lost Lake label, which was a subsidiary of Windham Hill. This is one the most incredible recordings of acoustic guitar I have ever heard. I was happy to discover that it is now on CD and that apparently the LP was only half of the record, the new issue is on 2 CDs! Read about it or order it at Amazon.com. I also used to have the Jungle Suite record, which, as discussed on the Samba Moon website, is quite a bit different. It looks like this one is also about to be issued on CD.
Check out the official Bola Sete website listed below for more info, including an extensive listing of available recordings.
