Stop, Look & Listen
CD (Item 379575) Celeste (Japan), 1975 — Condition: New Copy
A really rare session from groovy Brazilian keyboardist Mario Castro-Neves – originally only issued as part of the obscure Canadian Talent Library series in the 70s! The vibe here is similar to Mario's classic 60s work in Brazil – an electrified take on the style begun by Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66, but served up with an approach that's got a lot more of a 70s groove overall. As with Sergio's, Mario's group features two female singers in the lead – singing side by side in a really great way – but unlike Sergio, Mario has a real ear for writing his own tunes, and contributes a number of great originals to the album, really helping to push it past the obvious, and give it a rich feel of its own! Mario's tunes are totally great – sung in a breezy vocal style, and supported by instrumentation that includes keyboards, guitar, and bits of jazzy horns. Originals include "Stop Look & Listen", "Sometime Love Affair", "Open Up", "Subtle Chemistry", "Why Can't There Be You", and "Boca Grande" – and the album also features a great cover of Stevie Wonder's "Summersoft"! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
