OK, let's get this issue settled once and for all. They are not playing a balloon, a whistle or a skinned weasel. It is an instrument called the "Cloacoa" and is played by alternatively stroking and squeezing with expulsions of air. So, now that you know .. let's go back and listen to the nice music and close our eyes thinking about those lovely ladies dancing on the Bahia in those minuscule thongs and with those appreciable bronzed bodies ... oh my ghod .. all of that and the Cloacoa too ...
Edit: and speaking of the expulsions of air, now there is the digeradoo ...
"Cloacoa"??
The name of the instrument is CUÍCA. Perhaps you've been influenced by the first sillable of the word, which means asshole, literally, in Portuguese. And the music has nothing to do with brazilian places or people (maybe it's similar to some crap played on shows at tourist restaurants). Only in those stereotype-driven minds...
Nice guitar playing, with a flamenco accent. (McFlamenco, yes) dowdog999 got it: what the f*$^? it has to do with brazilian samba? "Carnaval"? Oh my, give me a break. Only in this guy's disturbed muzakmind...
This duo is from Portugal. Amazing players. There are many great brazilian guitar players that could be at RP: Paulo Belinatti, Yamandu Costa, Paulinho Nogueira, Rafael Rabello, Duo Assad, and so on. And the name of the guy is João Gilberto.
Me Too! Come on people, 4.9? Since when did "Smoke on the Water" become a sacred cow? I must have missed that memo. I thought the original was the coolest...when I was 10 years old! Now, everybody and his cousin pokes fun at that dinosaur. My advice;
Pull the stick out of your back side Take a drink or a brownie Sick back, loosen up, relax and enjoy life.
Yes, I agree. This track is kitsch, weird, comic...whatever you call it, but it certainly works.
Calm, fluid, nice guitar/piano interplay... I like it.
Air?
