Various Artists, "A Trip To Brazil: Bossa, Samba & Beyond", Verve #545 475-1 (2000).[2-LP Compilation Set]

This 2-LP set which contains material from A Trip to Brazil and A Trip to Brazil, Volume 2, includes the following tracks on which Claudio Slon plays drums:

"Summer Samba" from the Rain Forest album by The Walter Wanderley Trio (Claudio Slon, drums) as well as "The Crickets Sing for Anamaria" from Marcos Valle's Samba '68 album (Claudio Slon, drums).

In his liner notes, Mr. DeSouteiro wrote the following:

After watching Valle's appearance on the Andy Williams TV show in the summer of 1966, Merv Griffin became a fan instantly. He persuaded Verve to sign him, and the result was Samba '68, arranged by Deodato. It is the one and only album recorded by Valle in the USA (his first USA release, "Braziliance!", commended by Warner in 1965, had been recorded in Rio). From the mid-'80s onwards, this track became a big hit in the acid-jazz dancefloor scene, with the percussion batucada break being sampled by many pop acts, including Deee-Lite's Towa Tei.

Compilation produced by Arnaldo DeSouteiro.
