Herbie Mann: Do The Bossa Nova With Herbie Mann

Description: Do The Bossa Nova With Herbie Mann - Complete Brazilian Sessions Herbie Mann Featuring: Herbie Mann (fl, a-fl), Antonio Carlos Jobim (p, vcl), Pedro Paulo (tp), Paulo Moura (as), Durval Ferreira, Baden Powell (g), Sergio Mendes (p), Otavio Bailly Jr. (b), Dom Um Romao (d) REFERENCE: FSRCD 752 In 1962, at the height of the bossa nova craze, flautist Herbie Mann went back to the source and connected the real thing with jazz by recording in Rio de Janeiro with some of the best local practitioners and adapting with ease to a broad spectrum of Brazilian groups. Sergio Mendes’ hard-swinging band is heard on tunes like Menina Feia, Batida Diferente or Blues Walk, with Mendes, Pedro Paulo and Paulo Moura impressively jazz-aware on piano, trumpet and alto respectively. Elsewhere, Antonio Carlos Jobim is coolly intriguing, singing and scatting on his own One Note Samba. He also plays piano and provides the string settings on this and the charming, rich melodies of Amor Em Paz and Insensatez. Baden Powell’s distinctive guitar features in three black-influenced compositions, Nana, Deve Ser Amor, and Consolaçao, nice songs “almost with a blues feeling,” Mann pointed out. On Voce E Eu, Mann’s flute is backed by the Bossa Tres, another trio with a jazz approach led by the talented pianist Luis Carlos Vinhas. And Bossa Velha—a number Mann conceived for the occasion— is a 17-piece percussion group recruited from the “Escola de Samba.” The results remain a delightful vindication of Mann’s decision.
