The Legend Passes On,
By Retina (Oakland, CA.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lake Perseverance (Audio CD)
For me, he was one of the unsung champions of Brazilian music outside of musical circles. A side man, recording with some of the best musicians in the world for decades, he created an infectious body of music that remains to this day, classic. His great albums with Joe Beck on guitar are still the best Samba jazz recordings ever!!
This great percussionist/drummer just passed away recently and with him, a small piece of my heart goes. But, he has left another wonderful album with great rhythms and soul. And, to think at his age, he was still putting down grooves the youngsters would marvel at. A great musician who ranks with the best, he will be sorely missed, but, always appreciated.

A living legend!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lake Perseverance (Audio CD)
Mr. Romao is the best Brazilian drummer/percussionist ever. A living legend, at 76 he is also becoming a dancefloor star in Europe, after many years doing famous USA jazz dates with Ron Carter, Cannonball Adderley, Yusef Lateef and countless others. Not to mention his playing on the landmark "Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim" album. Oh, and he was also a member of Weather Report during their heyday! This new album features many young Brazilian talents such as Danilo Caymmi, Marcelo Salazar, Paula Faour, Jorge Pescara, Ithamara Koorax and Nani Palmeira. Highly recommended.
