REVIEW
".this trio really cooks, pushed by Autuori's driving drum work. This is bossa trio music with an edge to it" -- Robert Iannapollo - Cadence (USA)

FROM THE ARTIST
Side One of this first volume of the Jorge Autuori Trio LP kicks off with ‘Triste Madrugada’, a well-known samba tune and taken at a swift pace with Autuori using the toms on his kit to good effect. ‘There’s a Kind of Hush’ (misspelled on the cover due to the Carioca confusion between ‘R’ and ‘H’ when spoken) is the kind of American pop hit that had started to show up on trio dates by the late 60s as producers and young audiences alike moved towards a more Beatles-influenced pop sound. As well as being a highly regarded poet and lyricist Chico Buarque also wrote some great catchy tunes like ‘Tem Mais Samba’. With its clever hooks it survives instrumental treatment well – even without its sharp lyrics. The wistful ‘O Caderninho’ is a stock composition for bossa trios and ‘Jovem Guarda’ pop groups alike, and ‘Despidada de Mangueira’ is another classic samba, this time dedicated to the Mangueira samba school. Helton Menezes’ groovy ‘Samba Com Molho’ (literally ‘Samba with Sauce! ’ ) closes Side One with a hefty samba backbeat on the Autuori kit.

Side Two opens with ‘Palmas No Portão’, another updated old school samba with the pianist here making the piano sound like a spinet and featuring a great breakdown at the close. ‘Never Never’ is more ‘MOR’ pop but again the delicate touch of the pianist is compensated by the heavy beat that Jorge lays down throughout. After ‘Fechei a Porta’ comes the classic ‘Capoeira de Oxalá’, a real driving club track and classic afro-samba that showcases the talents of this trio quite thoroughly – check the great outro! Two more upbeat tracks ‘Illusão Demais’ and ‘Tema de Nós Três’ close out the set and leave the listener (and the dancer!) wanting more.

Wherever you are Jorge Autuori & co, we’re sure you’ll be picking up the vibes from a whole new generation of fans for the sound of the Jorge Autuori Trio!
