SERGIO MENDES – BRASILEIRO CD

Description: SERGIO MENDES – BRASILEIRO CD What 1989's Arara hinted at, 1992's Brasileiro delivers with a vengeance, for at long last, here isa genuine, back-to-Brazil tour de force by expatriate Mendes. Taking up the long-abandoned threadof his prophetic Primal Roots album of 1972, Mendes went back to the taproots of his heritage,calling upon a plethora of explosive Brazilian rhythms and sounds recorded mostly in Brazil. Withthe rat-a-tat opening of thunderous Bahian-influenced percussion from the streets of Rio, "Fanfarra(Cabua-Le-Le)" gets the CD off to a tremendous start, and "Magalenha" continues the assault directlyfrom the hands of Bahian percussionists. Energetic fusions of this and that abound on this recording. Combining forro and samba reggae with Indiado stomps and shouts, "What Is This" is a rompingBahian take on hip-hop, and "Kalimba" grafts Portuguese vocals onto a swinging American funk groove. Dominating the signature Mendes vocal blend is Gracinha Leporace, who sounds more vibrant than everon these tracks, and bassist Sebastian Neto also returns to the Mendes fold. This was Mendes' most electrifying album in at least two decades.
