Description
First vinyl reissue in over 45 years for a long-lost, pivotal jazz fusion record!
This album, originally released in 1970 on the thinly-distributed Skye
label, marks Airto's debut as a bandleader and captures the percussionist
right at the time he recorded Bitches Brew with Miles Davis, and right before he joined Weather Report for their first album. Indeed, the line-up on this album reflects the fact that Airto had one foot in the NYC jazz scene and one foot in his native Brazil, as bassist Ron Carter joins Airto's countrymen Sivuca and Hermeto Pascoal, along with Airto's wife Flora Purim. The music's a fascinating blend of jazz, fusion, funk, and Brazilian tropes, with some truly beautiful musical passages, housed inside the original wild, Hieronymus Bosch album art. For this exclusive Record Store Day release, we've pressed up just 750 copies in pink, yellow, and green marbled vinyl!
