  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    We got enough interest from fans looking to buy Gods in Brasil on CD that we decided to make a limited run of mini LP style gatefold sleeve CDs.
    These are super quality and a direct facsimile of the LP cover, with the inside featuring what was supposed to be the insert for vinyl but the factory forgot to print it with all the pandemic issues.

    13 tracks including Follow Your Heart that is not on the vinyl edition.

    - on body graphics

    - custom clear case (original MiniDisc cases are no longer made!)
    - made in micro batches by specialist Japanese boffins (well English boffins, actually)

    This is the one you've all been waiting for, the Japanese format that Sony messed up by keeping proprietary just as MP3 was born to destroy the music industry.

    So dig out those Sony / Sharp DiscMan MD players and give them some digital love.


    Mastered especially for MiniDisc by Ricardo Garcia at Magic Master Rio de Janeiro. Ricardo was around the first time for MiniDisc!

    Free digital download of course comes with this physical product.

    Warning. This disc needs a MiniDisc player but it will also look cool on your living room shelf.

about

In the early 90s a friend of mine took a bus to Paraguay for the day to renew his three month Brazilian visa. In the border town there were fakes everywhere for sale, but the one that caught his eye was the fake whiskey with the familiar top hatted and cane figure : Juanito Caminante (Little Johnny Walker)

lyrics

Down in Paraguay
There is nothing you can’t buy
Like a shiny ‘gold’ Rolex
Or some Hollywood cigarettes

But when it comes to whiskey
Things are getting risky
I just want my Johnnie Walker
But life’s not so easy


I said
Juanito Caminante
[Yo no quero]
So quero Johnnie Walker
[Yo no quero]
Juanito Caminante
[Yo no quero]
So quero Johnnie Walker
[Yo no quero]


Down in Paraguay
There is nothing you can’t buy
Like a nearly ‘gold’ Rolex
Or some Hollywood cigarettes

But when it comes to whiskey
Things are getting risky
I just want my Johnnie Walker
But life’s not so easy


I said
Juanito Caminante
[Yo no quero]
So quero Johnnie Walker
[Yo no quero]
Juanito Caminante
[Yo no quero]
Juanito Caminante
[Yo no quero]
So quero Johnnie Walker
[Yo no quero]
Juanito Caminante

Ayo, yo vendo cinco garrafas
De whiskey
Hecho en Cuba
Whisky del mejor cualidad
Hecho con puro malte
Ayo, camina para la o
[fake word]
Beba whiskey
Whiskey de la Cuba
Whisky de la Cubano
Whisky de la puta madre
