"Viagens" is a great CD! I play it all the time and regret not buying his second album "Tempo" last time I was in Portugal.

5.0 out of 5 stars never far from the CD player, July 22, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Viagens (Audio CD)

I bought this CD in 1997. I got it from a little store in Coimbra on the recommendation of the clerk there. Since then I have played it dozens of times and it never gets far from the CD player. If you like gravel voiced males, hot jazz fusion, and tight ensemble playing, this CD is a gem.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Portugal has to offer !, November 10, 1998

Pedro Abrunhosa is a rebel. He was a jazz teacher, and one day he decided to pick his best students, get in a plain to New York, and meet Prince! Amazing! In the same day he met Maceo Parker (the Louis Armstrong sax man) and invited him to play along in his first album, and Maceo accepted! "Viagens" is a great album, a mix-a-lot of jazz, funk, hip-hop, and soul, with Pedro Abrunhosa counting on wonderful Maceo in the saxophone. Listen to "Socorro", "Não Posso Mais", "Tudo O Que Eu Te Dou" and of course "É Preciso Ter Calma". Acid Jazz is his best with Pedro Abrunhosa.
