They have such a lot of hilarious musicians down there in Brazil, it's 
incredible. Whenever i'm there, i sit in with differerent folks on the beach 
of the Ilha do Governador (Rio de Janeiro), and the majority of them are 
playing Samba, Chorinho and such stuff, and although the most of them aren't 
famous people, just guys from the neighborhood, they are real artists through 
and through and i have really a lot of respect for those guys, and although i 
NEVER really could keep up to that partially really complicated music they're 
playin', they are so kind and open to invite me to sit in...it's really music 
from their heart. An incredible experience. Love it.
