Second Bola Sete solo guitar album to be issued on this label, a reissue of a 1982 session, originally issued as Jungle Suite in 1985 on Dancing Cat Records. Beautifully packaged with background notes from Anne Sete. From the original liner Notes by George Winston: "This is the great Brazilian guitarist Bola Sete's incredibly soulful suite, containing the music of hidden and magical places. The album, recorded in 1982, contains Bola's only solo recordings on the steel string guitar. His 1972 recording, Ocean Memories, marked a profoundly deeper level in Bola's music and solo guitar playing. With this album, Bola reached even greater depths. While Bola's work is deeply rooted in Brazilian music, he evolved a vision uniquely his own. His music is, in part, a synthesis of several influences, including Brazilian folk music, bossa nova, Spanish music, classical guitar, jazz, and American folk. The ultimate synthesis, however, defies classification and is Bola's own." John Fahey wrote about Bola Sete in 1976: ""Few living people have had such an enormous influence on my life, my music, my soul, my religion -- you name it -- as has Bola Sete."
