Sublime.......2006-08-05

Simple... bitter sweet... This music fills you with "saudage"...
A trully a breath taking work of art...

Brazil's music is infinite.......2006-07-13

How could it be possible?
Still new versions of Vinicius' famous Consolacao, or
Tristeza E Solidao, or even Canto De Ossanha?
Oh yes! These two, chemicaly pure elements, Salmaso-Bellinati
are made for each other. In my opinion, the best and most
sensitive music form that Brazil has seen during the last 10
years.
There are no words to describe their quality.
You are a privileged person, in the right place, at the
right time. Be prepared and just do not let anybody disturb you
after pressing the "PLAY"-button.

Magnificent!.......2005-12-26

Os Afro-Sambas was originally recorded in 1966, while this one without Vinicius de Moraes, was done by Baden Powell, Quarteto em cy (as the original), and others nearly quarter century later. Os Afro-Sambas is certainly one of the most important works of contemporary Brazilian Music truly reflecting the transition period from the stylish Bossa Nova of the late 50's to the revolutionary Tropicalia of the late 60's. Eight of the eleven compositions are the same of the original one, while two are also compostions of Baden and Vinicius from the same period and the opening was made by Baden alone specially for this recording.

All tracks reflect religious syncretism, the mixture of West African religions of slavery origin and the European Catholicism, found mostly on Bahia State in form of Ubanda and Candoble religions. The most frequent music theme is love, specially love delusions and solitude. The understanding of singed Brazilian Portuguese would be a must to get into Vinicius poetry in full depth, as there are no lyrics on this set. As one of the most important contemporary Brazilian poets Vinicius de Moraes also has an important role on Brazilian Popular Music with his solo and works with other Brazilian musicians. His work with Baden is an encounter with one of the best Brazilian guitar players, whose strong classical influence is fantastically merged into samba.

This album uses all the sound technology available on 90's so its is pristine recording, which permits to the listener distinguish easily all the different percussion instruments. The 66 album was recorded on a 2 channel studio, and this means a huge difference in sound quality, Now the original one is only available on both Vinicius and Baden complete works box set. Although this 1990 recording is not the original one, Baden tried to keep this version as similar as possible as to the 66' one giving us opportunity to fully appreciate this hallmark of Brazilian Music. There is also an interesting religious aspect to be mentioned. The Brazilian afro religions are not well tolerated by the evangelic Christians. Later in his life when Baden had converted to an evangelic cult he renegaded this work changing afro words to more Christian oriented ones during presentations.

Certainly this CD is an excellent choice.

Sarava !

re-recording.......2003-10-10

I believe this is a 1990 re-recording of the original 1966 classic. Kind of hi-fi sounding and more pristine. The original is probably more funky and gritty. Think its out of print though, I haven't been able to find a copy.

Customer Reviews:

like Gal Costa.......2004-07-10

Miho Hatori has the same type of voice, Gal Costa and Maria Creuza (who used to sang along with Vinicius) had in the 60's and 70's , soft, tender, in a unique brasileira way- doesn't matter Miho is not Brazilian, her voice sounds brasileira-. If you like bossa nova, go for it.

Vinicius never had such a weak voice!.......2003-02-27

Imagine Minnie Mouse making a Brazilian demo record. That is what this resembles. Everything clicks here except Miho's shy, squeaky vocals. This CD is very uneven: the songs were written by geniuses, the instrumentals are lovely, and the vocals are just pitiful. What a waste of a good opportunity!

I finally got it and it was worth the wait!.......2003-01-06

This is great music for drawing and driving. I play this CD in my painting class. Its both relaxing + rhythmic enough not to be distracting. Really good stuff -- go to a concert!

A beautiful homage to classic Brazilian bossa nova.......2003-01-04

The smooth, versatile rock guitarist Smokey Hormel (known for his work with Tom Waits, Beck, and others) and vocalist Miho Hatori (of Cibo Matto fame) teamed up out of their mutual appreciation for the haunting 1966 album, "Os Afro Sambas," a Brazilian bossa nova classic by guitarist Baden Powell and poet Vinicius De Moraes that remains mysteriously hard to find, even in this golden age of collector reissues. The Smokey & Miho band formed in 2001 to recreate the entire album in a series of live performances; their first 5-song EP, "Smokey & Miho," built on the mellow, lounge-y bossa vibe (but was mostly made up of original Hatori-Hormel material). On their follow-up EP, they stick to the old stuff, covering four songs off the original "Afro Sambas" album, as well as a fifth vintage Powell/De Moraes composition, "Consolacao." The entire "Tempo De Amor" EP is a delight -- Hatori's vocals recapture the feel of the original vocals by the all-female Quarteto Em Cy, while Hormel's fluid guitar work is able to build apon Powell's haunting music, bringing a new modern warmth to the spooky source material. Fans of classic Brazilian bossa nova should love this affectionate homage. Highly recommended!

The "REAL" San Francisco treat.......2007-07-13

Being a native I always love hearing new tunes about my hometown. The title track on this CD "On A San Francisco High" chokes me up everytime I hear it. The lyrics take you through a musical journey from Union Square, to North Beach and Sausalito with a hip and sophisticated journey which will give you a clear and beautiful picture of SF. There are a couple of witty tunes - "In Marin" and "The Liberal Ladies of San Mateo" which shows the range of writing talent that Jerry Holland can express through his lyrical writing expertise. "Lovely to Be Lonely" is another hit which will tug at the heartstrings as well as "The Trouble Is" of which every woman can relate.

Sony's voice is sensational. She has a clear mix of vocal eloquency and pure deliverance with sometimes a touch of class and sometimes a touch of sass. She sings the songs effortlessly and with feeling.

This CD is not only a beautiful tribute to the Bay Area but an excellent compilation of original jazz tunes which in my opinion stand tall next to any jazz standards.

Customer Reviews:

Any Miho is good Miho.......2003-05-07

This is a fun, chill album. Throw it on and get your house shoes on. Put the lights down low, get a drink and settle in for a good jazzy mellow time. None of the explosive jams from her Cibo Matto days, but Miho still brings the goods to this collaboration with Smokey Hormel. Don't expect Cibo Matto, because Cibo Matto this is not, but it's still very good, and worth your time.
