jazzbo Posted April 27, 2019 Report Posted April 27, 2019 Tom Jobim, "Matita Pere"  AKA "Jobim"  This fantastic recording from 1973 is beautiful. Stunning arrangements by Claus Ogerman, wonderfully conducted by Harry Lookovsky and performed by great musicians, Jobim's wonderful direction, singing  and playing. . . . As time goes by I love this one more and more. Quote

mikeweil Posted April 28, 2019 Report Posted April 28, 2019 The band swings like mad on this one! Nice fat arrangements with just four horns, Henry Boozier, Tom McIntosh (who wrote them), Jimmy Heath, and Tate Houston. Quote

JSngry Posted April 28, 2019 Author Report Posted April 28, 2019 This is like listening to a really good pop record, only without the annoying LCD accommodations. Good tunes (Hello Roland Alexander & Charles Davis!) unexpected production appearance by Russell Jacquet, and oh look Gold Star Studios. So it IS like a really good pop record, now we can have an allowable # of degrees of separation between Mingus & Cher! How many would that be, 4? IMingus - Illinois/Russell - Gold Star - Cher, right? I had bought a pretty plowed LP of this back in the 70s, remember liking a lot, playing it a few times, and then putting it away, glad to know THAT happened, etc.. Got this OJC god knows when, one of those file-away-until purchases, never opened it until today. Well, it's still good, and now all the scratches are gone. Win! Quote
