Airto -- FINGERS (CTI SLIB177)
Airto Moreira is a Brazilian percussionist who played
with everyone in the 70's. "Fingers" is his debut American album. Very
melodic, rhythmically dense stuff on the brazilian tip. Absolutely!!! I've got
the vinyl & the thing smokes.
By the way, ANYTHING you see on CTI from the 70s is worth having. They
always stand out because they have super glossy covers with a black border
surrounding a bright color picture. I agree, and on this point, try others by
Airto, and also Deodato. They have a cover of Nights In White Satin (which I
hate the original), and it is a beautifully moving ambient piece, nothing like
the original.
