Herbie Mann • Brazil Blues

Review by Scott Yanow

A slightly expanded version of flutist Herbie Mann's 1961-62 group performs African-, Cuban- and Brazilian-influenced jazz on this appealing LP. With guitarist Billy Bean, vibraphonist Hagood Hardy, Dave Pike on marimba and four percussionists in the backup group, Mann's flute is well featured on tunes ranging from his own "B.N. Blues" and the standard "Brazil" to "One Note Samba." This album will be difficult to find but is worth the search.

Reseña de Scott Yanow

Una versión ligeramente ampliada del grupo del flautista Herbie Mann de 1961-62 interpreta jazz de influencia africana, cubana y brasileña en este atractivo LP. Con el guitarrista Billy Bean, el vibrafonista Hagood Hardy, Dave Pike en la marimba y cuatro percusionistas en el grupo de respaldo, la flauta de Mann aparece bien en temas que van desde su propio "B.N. Blues" y el estándar "Brasil" hasta "One Note Samba". Este álbum será difícil de encontrar pero vale la pena la búsqueda.
