Nana Vasconcelos?

I have a number of LP's and CD's where Nana appears as a sideman. I'm looking for recommendations of CD's or LP's by Nana. Can you give any?

Nana can also be heard on a number of ECM lps including Duas Vozes and Danca Das Cabecas with guitarist/pianist Egberto Gismonti(on ECM). His lp Bush Dance lp is a good place to begin for his own compositions.

Bush Dance sounds like a good beginning. Have you heard anything by him in that category.
