Chica Chica Boom Chic and More
Shake what your mama gave you!
Like Nick said, this is what Peg and Jack might be familiar with in terms of Brazilian music…
And this is the more refined sort of thing that Phil in an all caps kind of way JUST WANTS YOU TO APPRECIATE…REALLY GUYS LISTEN!
This was his first break away hit in 1959 – Samba Triste

“100 anos Carmen Miranda, vamos tambores rufar!”
Carmen Miranda’s musics are forever and definitely make a stand in a very important part of the World’s history – the second World War
This great diva will always remain in our hearts; she’ll always be remembered as “a Pequena Notável” with her beautiful and lovely smile.
Here in Portugal we also have a Carmen Miranda Museum that is very worthwhile to visit: it has some interesting items!
As a Painter and Plastic Artist I could not standby upon her 100th birthday celebration, even more, because she was born in a town near mine. So I decided to pay her a tribute by doing an exhibition.
You can check my blog for more information regarding my tribute to Carmen Miranda. I hope you enjoy it!
