Wax of the Week #76...Baden Powell Quartet: Vol. 1 (1971)
First of three albums they recorded in three days in Paris. Janine De Waleyne’s vocals on the Powell/Paulo César Pinheiro composition “Réfem da Solidaõ” give a bit of a giallo soundtrack feel (apparently they did a whole album together in the same year; will need to track that down). Some nifty guitar work on Ed Lincoln’s “Do Jeito Que a Gente Quer.” Johnny Alf’s “Rapaz de Bem” evokes the classic light, breezy, and sophisticated bossa sound. Plus there’s an acoustic instrumental and a long, energetic Brazilian percussion track. A nice one.
