Mike Blakesley said:Dave - you're missing a lot of good stuff. The album with "Never Gonna Let You Go" -- that song is really one of the low points on that album, as far as I'm concerned.
Mike Blakesley said:There's other stuff on there that sounds more "Sergio-like," including 2 nice instrumentals.
You should also get BRASILEIRO and OCEANO, and for sure you should seek out HORIZONTE ABERTO. Those have a lot of the B'66 influence in them.
And, you should write your posts with "black" letters!
walterphil said:yes its a hard choice--
but i picked the earliest era
because i basically love the first 3 lps
IN THEIR ENTIRETY
while the next 4 lps i really only
LOVE about 50-60% of all the trax.
(the highlights from those last 4 lps
are probably the groups finest work tho)
Rudy said:I second that. When Fool On The Hill and Crystal Illusions hit their stride, they are excellent--"Casa Forte", "Festa" and "Lapinha" I can't live without!
Rudy said:Grusin just lays it on thick with countermelodies that distract from the music at hand...melodies in the octaves the singers are also singing in, like a competition. Some like it...I don't really care for it...
Rudy said:While a track like "Pretty World" is neat, it sounds more like the Dave Grusin Pops with special guest Lani Hall singing lead on it. A catchy tune, but it really is not representative of the same Brasil '66 that recorded "Casa Forte".

Well, I can see that I am the ONLY one to vote for the '77 Bell era, but that it where I started and worked my way backwards. Love Music is still my favourite album.
