Ocean Memories (Disc1)
Review: Brilliant Brazilian jazz guitarist at the end of his career branches out into new territory. Both CDs feature the guitarist playing solo interpretations of the ocean and other things. Disc 1 was originally released on Takoma Records, John Fahey's label, and the playing style is in the same vein, yet the guitarist is pulling from deep within his cultural traditions.
FCCs: none
If You Like: John Fahey, Egberto Gismonti, Joao Gilberto, Laurindo Almeida
Favorite Tracks: (3) Let Go (5) The Lonely gaucho (6) Inn of the Beginning (8) Paradise Love Song
Track Review: 1/ heavy chords start> slow tempo> crescendo end 2/ heavy chords start> slow tempo builds to uptempo & slows> quick stop 3/ midtemo> fade 4/ uptempo> quick stop 5/ midtempo> quick stop 6/ heavy chords start> uptempo> quick stop 7/ fast tempo> quick stop 8/ slow tempo> slow fade
