This album really highlights the symbiotic relationship between jazz in the United States and samba-jazz, jazz-bossa or just jazz in Brazil. Flows of mutual inspiration were resulting in an amazing amount of innovation and great music on both sides of the equator. But like in many other contexts, the relationship was also lopsided and unequal. The infatuation of American jazz for bossa nova, Brazil's biggest musical export, unfortunately overlooked the immense variety of possibilities presented by other styles of music, such as samba. If US jazz absorbed anything of samba, it was by way of bossa nova's own mutations of it. With apologies for making a simplified, unilineal argument, I'll do it anyway and say that samba was to bossa nova what the blues was to jazz: the latter would not have existed without the former. But the blindness to each other's roots was reciprocal - the blues was not really in the repertoire of musical idioms available to Brazilians either, at least not in the early 60s. Both jazz and bossa were transnational, globalized music long before anyone used that kind of language to describe them, but when you push back into their roots you find yourself at the limits of the culturally specific. In spite of a multitude of sociological and economic similarities, a Mississippi sharecropper and a morro resident in Rio were speaking mutually unintelligible languages.
This is another record where singling out individual tracks seems almost superfluous, but their arrangements of a few classic tunes deserve pointing out. "Naña", one of Moacir Santos' most gorgeous and most recorded compositions, is immediately compelling with Tenório's sparse deconstruction of the chord sequence opening the tune before the lush harmonies of sax, trumpet and flute come in on the main melody. Remind me some time to post Santos' "Coisas" album here, as it's essential listening that makes a lot of the "top 100" lists that people are always making. Incidentally, Moacir Santos played in a completely unrelated combo calling themselves Os Cobras, who made a one-off album in 1960 and then disappeared.
Another ear-catching track is a version of Clifford Brown's signature tune, "The Blues Walk", proving that these guys hold their own on straight bop. The album is infused with bop throughout, especially noticeable in Meirelles's own composition "Quintessence" and "Praia" from Orlann Divo & Roberto Jorge, which still sound fresh. They may start out a bit reverent playing Brown's tune, but the sense of playfulness and fun soon overtakes everything else. This is followed by the Cipó composition "40 graus" which except for its choruses bears more than a passing resemblance to the rocking samba-jazz-bossa that J.T. Meirelles was making with Jorge Ben at the time. It's also the longest track here, clocking in at a whopping four and a half minutes. The record closes with a short pretty composition by Luiz Fernando Freire and Roberto Menescal ("Moça da praia", apparently a favorite theme of the bossa crowd), who also features on acoustic guitar.
