Man & A Woman

Add to Cart$6.99 ... LP
LP (Item 25443) Capitol, 1967 -- Condition: Very Good

Bossa guitar, dreamy orchestrations, and a wonderful American take on the Brazilian sound of the 60s -- served up with sparkling Capitol Records production in a set that's easily one of the greatest by guitarist Laurindo Almeida! Almeida's guitar is matched here with some lightly jazzy backings from Lex De Azevedo -- slightly pop, but always groovy -- and with a gentle sound that matches bossa roots with some of the more complicated modes from 60s soundtrack years -- served up in sweeping strings, moody woodwinds, and some nicely isolated notes from Almedia's acoustic guitar. Titles include "A Man & A Woman", done very nicely, plus "Mas Que Nada", "Soft Mood", "Bluesette", "Call Me", and "Going Out Of My Head". (Rainbow label pressing. Cover has some ringwear and remnants of an old sticker.)  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
