Daniela Mercury - O Canto da Cidade
This is the 1992 CD which made Daniela Mercury famous. The album features song written by Carlinhos Brown, Caetano Veloso and Chico Buarque. It is a great album to listen and Dance to, thanks to Daniela Mercury's strong voice and the percussion by members of Bloco Ile Aiye.

This 1997 release is one of the best of Daniela Mercury. Great tunes to listen to or dance to. It features the famous song "Rapunzel" on track 2 written by Carlinhos Brown and the famous "Vide Gal". It also has a surprise ballad sang in Japanese.

Daniela Mercury - Sol da Liberdade
To me it is the best of Daniela Mercury. Again the Percussion (by members of Ile Aiye) is hard to resist. The album features mainly Samba-Reggae and Axe rhythms but also has some Hip-Hop, a duo with Benin singer Angelique Kidjo and a techno track (I usually hate techno but this one even I like).

Ile Aiye - 25th anniversary CD
Ile Aiye is the most African influenced of the Bahian groups and blocos. It is flavoured with religion and the voices and unique rhythm gives it a holy feel.
A gem !
