AIRTO ‎MOREIRA - Seeds On The Ground - The Natural Sound Of Airto (1971-1990) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Seeds On The Ground (1971) est le deuxième album solo du jazzman brésilien Airto Moreira, juste avant sa participation au Return To Forever de Chick Corea. On baigne typiquement dans l'atmosphère Jazz fin des années 60 / début 70 : Jazz Fusion, Free Jazz, Jazz teinté de rythmes exotiques. Le plus est apporté par les racines brésiliennes d'Arto Moreira via la Samba et les musiques Folkloriques Brésiliennes style Forro. Airto Moreira est accompagné par sa compagne, Flora Purim, au chant, et les excellents musiciens Hermeto Pascoal aux claviers e Ron Carter à la contrebasse. On note la présence de Sivuca. Mes plages préférées correspondent aux temps de l'album où le Jazz Fusion rencontre avec magie la Samba ("Juntos (We Love)"). Cet album "solo" et "débridé" d'Airto Moreira est souvent présenté comme une "récréation entre deux périodes, celle "Weather Report" et celle "Return to Forever". Seeds On The Ground est un très intéressant album de Jazz Fusion créatif et aventureux fortement teinté de musique latine sauce brésilienne, donc à découvrir. by Dominique Deret

MILES DAVIS - Live Evil (1971-1987) 2CD | FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Live-Evil is one of Miles Davis' most confusing and illuminating documents. As a double album, it features very different settings of his band -- and indeed two very different bands. The double-LP CD package is an amalgam of a December 19, 1970, gig at the Cellar Door, which featured a band comprised of Miles, bassist Michael Henderson, drummer Jack DeJohnette, guitarist John McLaughlin, saxophonist Gary Bartz, Keith Jarrett on organ, and percussionist Airto. These tunes show a septet that grooved hard and fast, touching on the great funkiness that would come on later. But they are also misleading in that McLaughlin only joined the band for this night of a four-night stand; he wasn't really a member of the band at this time. Therefore, as fine and deeply lyrically grooved-out as these tracks are, they feel just a bit stiff -- check any edition of this band without him and hear the difference. The other band on these discs was recorded in Columbia's Studio B and subbed Ron Carter or Dave Holland on bass, added Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock on electric pianos, dropped the guitar on "Selim" and "Nem Um Talvez," and subbed Steve Grossman over Gary Bartz while adding Hermeto Pascoal on percussion and drums in one place ("Selim"). In fact, these sessions were recorded earlier than the live dates, the previous June in fact, when the three-keyboard band was beginning to fall apart. Why the discs were not issued separately or as a live disc and a studio disc has more to do with Miles' mind than anything else. As for the performances, the live material is wonderfully immediate and fiery: "Sivad," "Funky Tonk," and "What I Say" all cream with enthusiasm, even if they are a tad unsure of how to accommodate McLaughlin. Of the studio tracks, only "Little Red Church" comes up to that level of excitement, but the other tracks, particularly "Gemini/Double Image," have a winding, whirring kind of dynamic to them that seems to turn them back in on themselves, as if the band was really pushing in a free direction that Miles was trying to rein in. It's an awesome record, but it's because of its flaws rather than in spite of them. This is the sound of transition and complexity, and somehow it still grooves wonderfully. Thom Jurek

HERALDO DO MONTE - Heraldo do Monte (1980) Lp / Mp3

Heraldo nasceu no Recife e começou na música tocando clarineta no colégio. A clarineta era o único instrumento disponível e com ele Heraldo lutou por uma semana sem conseguir tirar qualquer som. Até que seu professor, ligeiramente irritado, empunhou o instrumento para lhe mostrar como tocar e percebesse que havia algo errado. Um colega, pregando uma peça, havia enfiado uma flanela no tubo da clarineta.
Heraldo seguiu seus estudos no instrumento e logo sentiu a necessidade de um instrumento harmônico. Usando os métodos para clarineta aprendeu sozinho a tocar o violão, intuindo os acordes.
Aprendeu também a tocar cavaquinho e viola caipira e comprou uma guitarra para começar a ganhar a vida tocando nas casas noturnas de Recife. Pouco tempo depois partiu para São Paulo onde foi se empregou na TV Tupi acompanhando os músicos que se apresentavam na emissora. No ano de 1966 entrou para o então Trio Novo, que veio a se tornar um Quarteto Novo. Nesse quarteto tocavam outros brilhantes músicos. web

FLORA PURIM - Open Your Eyes You Can Fly (1976-2000) RM / FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

As an original member of Chick Corea's group Return to Forever, Purim subsequently drew praise as a solo act. Recording for the jazz label Milestone since 1973, Purim's sensual and strong voice was singular enough to withstand the pitfalls that hampered the work of many Latin jazz fusion artists. Open Your Eyes You Can Fly represents a commercial breakthrough, and has the artist again supplemented by adventurous players and top-notch songwriting. The best of the three Chick Corea tracks is the title song. With it's emotive and stinging guitar solo from David Amaro, it features Purim at her most accessible and charming. The remake of "Sometime Ago" has one of Corea's more accessible melodies, as Purim turns in one of her more sweet and fulfilling vocals. The melodic and soothing "San Francisco River" has the artist writing solely with frequent Corea collaborator Neville Potter on the evocative track. Despite the great work here, Open Your Eyes You Can Fly, lacks consistency. But with the great talents assembled and great voice, it's easy to overlook that fact. Hermeto Pascoal's "Andei (I Walked)" has a great synthesizer solo from George Duke and a flute solo from Pascoal. "Ina's Song (Trip to Bahia)" features Purim singing in Portuguese, starting off slow but then enlivened by her passion filled vocalizations. Produced by jazz producer Orrin Keepnews, this features the artist more lucid and joyful than some of her other work. For the reason it is recommended. by Jason Elias

HERMETO PASCOAL - Slave Mass (1977) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Not strictly a jazz album in the strict sense (it was originally issued as part of the Masters of MPB on LP in 1977), Slaves Mass has strong compositional themes among its seven tracks. The maestro Hermeto Pascoal plays everything from flutes, soprano saxophone, guitar, Fender Rhodes, acoustic piano and clavinet on this set, and enlists help from Ron Carter, Airto, Flora Purim, Raul DeSouza, David Maro and others. "Mixing Pot," is the opener and an anomaly in that it is a vanguard fusion tune where Pascoal really digs in and improvises. It also features the only appearance on this set of Alphonso Johnson on electric bass. In "Missa Dos Escravos," the title track, Pascoal's emblematic pig gives his first growls in a song dominated by Brazilian Indian references. Wonderfully and intricately composed, it centers around folk tropes. "Chorinho Para Ele" is a beautiful and modern choro with a somewhat challenging glissando bridge that really proposed new directions for the traditional genre. "Aquela Valsa" is a beautiful six/eight theme that turns into a samba with a beautiful trombone solo by DeSouza. "Cannon" is an utterly improvisational piece that meanders and winds around Pascoal's flute solo. Atonalism dominates the piano solo in "Escuta Meu Piano," which also presents bits and pieces of different styles (like baião) and folk songs. Hot samba improvisation is found in "Geléia de Cereja," that slips and slides through a variety of schema and dynamic changes without much internal focus, but it is a compelling bit of creative anarchy nonetheless in that it displays Pascoal's full range of restless musical and textural impulses -- as well as a beautiful soprano solo. Slaves Mass was finally issued on CD by Collectables in the United States in 2005. by Alvaro Neder
