@fshadowk12690 "The name of this song"..in English? Directly translated from Portuguese, "chicken coop". New African arrivals in Brazil would hide from cruel slave-masters in chicken coops. Also the name of the deadly Brazilian martial art created by Africans in Brazil, and the folk music played by Black Brazilians (w. berimbau, origins in Angola).
Regarding his singing, I believe that's Al doing the chorus on the short vignette 'Pictures of the Sea' from his debut solo album 'Land of the Midnight Sun'. There's also some desultory vocal on 'Splendido Sundance as tresojos mentioned. Thankfully, he knows better than to spotlight it, unlike some great guitarists who think their prowess on the strings gives them a licence to vocalize. HeavyBlackRocks - by 'prolific' (high output) you meant 'prodigious'? A minor malapropism - great album.
An exerpt of Capoeira from the stellar Di Meola album "Soaring Through A Dream", one of his most prolific recordings ever and one of the best CD's money could buy when the Compact Disc medium first came out. Highly recommend it to all.
wow...you are really good, very smooth...I was hoping that you were going to start to sing...probably on another video though, because I see that your mic is set up...can't wait to hear more <3 Emily
Yes Al, definitely yes....
