And The Result Depends On How Much Of Each Spice You Put Into It. Now, I've Been Putting In Spices Since I Started Playing Professionally In 1945.

For Me Brazilian Music Is The Perfect Mix Of Melody And Rhythm. It Just Bubbles Rhythmically. If I Had To Pick Just One Music Style To Play If Would Be Brazilian.
