4.0 out of 5 stars A PLEASANT SURPRISE, August 31, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: BRAzSIL (Audio CD)

FOR THE UNINITIATED OR THE BRASILIAN MUSIC ENTHUSIAST, THIS CD HAS SOME HIDDEN TREASURES. SOME TRACKS LEAN TOWARD THE 1970'S BRASILIAN/ JAZZ FUSION, BUT MANY TRACKS ARE INSPIRED BY THE " MESTRE DA BOSSA", JOBIM, AND MPB (MUSICA POPULAR BRASILEIRA). THESE ARE THE MOST PLEASURABLE FOR MY TASTE. THE JAZZ WALTZ," VALSA PARA NINAR TERESA" IS VERY BEAUTIFUL, AND " CURVA DE RIO" IS AN INSPIRED "TONE POEM" SET TO MUSIC, FEATURING A BLAZING YET LYRICAL SOLO BY ULISSES ROCHA ON VIOLAO(NYLON STRING GUITAR). CHECK OUT ULISSES OWN CD FOR SOME BRILLIANT INSTRUMENTAL BRASILIAN JAZZ.

I picked this CD at a booksale at Baltimore's Enoch Pratt Library. The first track made me realize I had struck a good bargain as I purchased it for only $1.00. I can imagine listening to that track while lazily cruising down the road on a spring or summer afternoon. I also enjoyed the 2nd and 12th tracks particularly, but all the tracks are worth listening to. Truely a nice CD, as are most things musically Brazilian.

This Brazilian Jazz CD bases most of its content in the beauty of nature; and if on top of that beauty, you add smart / smooth / interesting cuts,and a coolaboration by Dori Caymmi, the result will be nothing but fantastic. You will also notice some Caetano Veloso and Hermeto Pascoal influence in Daniel. A 10 star album and a must-have for any Brazilian and Brazilian Jazz aficionados.
PS. About the "Brazsil" controversy, I think it symbolizes the great fusion of US and Brasil music that we all enjoy so much.
