Brasil Track Jacket, 2008 Summers Olympics, Brazilian World Cup Soccer Track Jacket, Large, Green (as pictured)
$39.95
Jacket is pretty much like every other track jacket, which is good.
The only thing is the arms are kind of short (well at least for me).

I ordered a small and the arms felt like an XS, but the rest of the jacket was ok.

The Finnish director Mika Kaurismaki has made a wonderful documentary on the roots of Brazilian music. He begins with the Fulni-O Indians and ends up with the samba in Rio. The focus of the film is on the three roots of Brazilian music which are Indian, Portuguese, and African. Kaurismaki drives in his jeep through the Northeastern part of Brazil, then to Bahia, and on to Rio de Janiero and you are given a glimpse of life in these diverse areas of Brazil. The film enables anyone to see the rich soulful mixes of the people of Brazil and their music. For me it is a treasure as I share Kaurismaki's passion for the soulful, happy, makes you want to dance, music of Brazil.

Everything that Manhattan Transfer does, they do extremely well. Brasil is no exception. An album recorded in the 80s; it has an unmistakeably 80s tone to it, the percussion tracks in particular. This is not a bossa nova album, but a synthesis of the magnficent vocal harmonies of ManTran with Brazilian musical styles and tones. Overall, not one of their best albums in terms of music selection, but there are some very good numbers, including So You Say, featuring soaring vocals by Ms. Bentyne. Manhattan Transfer's best work is in the genre of Swing Era Jazz and R&B, so for the purist this is not the pinacle of what they can do.

Nice futuristic work of the future where egocentrism and personal greed has taken absurd heights.

A low profile top official has his life upside down with emotions experienced from the different epoch.

Good work is a bit old-fashioned as too much similar was later created with an advanced audio/visual technology.
