Dig This - Airto Moreira and Flora Purim live

Well, it's that time of year.  I'm grading final papers, setting up final exams, telling students that there is no extra credit and that they'll have to take the grade they earned.  On top of that I'm still under a mountain of paperwork in trying to get my settlement visa for the UK.  I know, excuses, excuses, but that's why the posting has been a little light lately.  I promise I've got some good stuff in the works though that I hope to finish up soon.

In the meantime I'm going to create this new little series called "Dig This" that I can fall back on in times such as these.  So any time you're looking for something new to stumble upon just go over to the list on the right, and click "Dig This".

Today, to start this series, I've found this video of Airto and Flora Purim performing live at the Paul Masson Winery in California.  It looks as though it was part of series called "Harvest Jazz".  A lot of sites on the web date it 1982, but on Flora's own site it's dated 1985, so who knows.  Either way, it's a killer video.  Check it out.
