Parisian Producer Bob Sinclar And His Label Yellow Productions Fell In Love With Salomé De Bahia Over Eleven Years Ago When He Discovered Her Singing At Chez Felix A Famous Parisian Jazz Cabaret.

Salomé Was Perfect For—and Soon Featured On—“Psychodelico” The First Album By Sinclar-Produced Brazilian-Influenced Acid Jazz Group The Reminiscence Quartet.

The Song Which Appears On “Brasil ” Is A Personal Favorite As It Reminds Her Of The Neighborhood Of Her Youth Salvador In Bahia Where She First Began Making Records In 1958.
