I have tried to find Mestre Curió’s music to buy on the internet – I love Mestre Curió’s Capoeira Angola album so much I’d like to show my appreciation by buying it. No luck so far. If anyone knows of anywhere I can purchase it from, let me know! I can only find it on YouTube or as a free downloadable – this CD was recorded in 1997 in Mexico City.
