Stellar Samba Jazz LP combining classic Brazilian melodies and the rhythms of the Orixas.Second solo album from acclaimed drummer Stéphane San Juan, long-time drummer for Amadou & Mariam and percussionist for Bernard Purdie. Stéphane is currently drummer and percussionist on David Byrne's world tour.Produced by Stéphane and recorded almost entirely in Rio de Janeiro, "Saved By The Drums" is dedicated to the great Brazilian drum and percussion master Wilson das Neves (1936-2017). The legendary "rhythmist" of the Impera Serrano, one of the most traditional Samba schools in Rio, participated in many of the most important Samba Jazz and MPB albums and accompanied Chico Buarque for nearly 3 decades. Stéphane calls him "my spiritual father".'He was the person who encouraged me from the beginning to deepen not only my passion for Brazilian music, but especially my creative work as a songwriter,' he says. Mr. Wilson, in turn, described Stéphane as 'the most Brazilian French I have met' and used to compliment him for his mastery of local rhythms, highlighting their shared African origins.Wilson das Neves died in August 2017, but had the time to lend the immense charisma of his octogenarian voice for the song 'The day the favela will come down and it will not be the carnival', the version Stéphane made of the classic piece of the samba, 'O Dia Em Que O Morro Descer E Não For Carnaval'. Stéphane's version maintains the strength of the political message in the French translation, and was duly approved by the famous lyricist Paulo César Pinheiro. 'Wilson wanted to take me to his house to show him the verses in French,' Stéphane recalls. The percussion in the track is managed by another name of noble lineage: Armando Marcal, grandson of Marcal (1902-1947), one of the pioneering composers of samba and son of Master Marcal (1930-1994), legendary director of drums and samba schools.To the musical blessings of Wilson das Neves are added others, as, from the opening, the 8 minute tour de force of 'Elegua', so named in connection with the first deity for whom drums are playd in the worship of Yoruba ancestors. If Wilson is the one who guided Stéphane to Ifa, his initiation to the hand of Orunmila and the ceremony were made by Zero Telles, another great percussionist in Rio, known for his deep knowledge of religious rhythms. It is he who calls the Orixas (Yoruba saints) in the introduction of the song, formatted in song after the initial third.

Not helpful
Format: Paperback
This book is so basic it doesn't really help much in tips on identifying rocks and minerals. The photos are enlarged so much they are distorted and most photos are of the rocks cleaned and polished. That doesn't help with how to spot things in nature or where to look. I'm really disappointed. Also, Montana has a lot of cool rocks but all books ever speak of are sapphires and agates. I feel like I wasted my money. There are some helpful things but even as a beginner, most of the contents are known.

my spirit guardian
Format: Kindle
I am watching a practice witchcraft. Right after I started practicing witchcraft my spirit guardian came to me in a visit. She is an old medicine woman from an indigenous tribe.
I also have two other spirit guardians both or former pets that were killed. They are my protectors. However, the spirit guardian that came to me in the vision. She is the one that brings me warning, gives me my spells, helps me with virtually everything into my day-to-day living. I found it ironic that I came across this book whenever whenever it showed in my recommended reading list. But I digress, the first few paragraphs told me everything that I already knew and brought confirmation to what my spirit guardian had already told me. I flip through the book read a few things. I personally do not believe in angels, but I do believe that if you are willing to open yourself up your guardian will be they’re guiding you the entire time.
One particular example that I would like to give. A few days ago I’ve gotten up and I stood by my altar to do my morning magic. As I started the ritual, I felt this fear come over me and started in my guts. This is the area where my spirit guardian warns me and tells me not to do something. At that point I felt or it was pressed upon me that I needed to hurry up and get dressed and start my day. I drive rideshare, Uber I heard up got dressed and I thought point I felt like not to make any noise in my house. I quickly left my house went to my car got it warmed up as fast as I possibly could and left. The moment I left my property because I live in the country and got on the road that fear left. After meditating on it I have to believe that my spirit garden was protecting me from a dark force that was coming for me. That I needed to leave the property as fast as I could because I was in danger
