  • ECM's Brazilian Delight

    5 out of 5 stars
    koeu267imMarch 4, 2025United States🇺🇸

    At last, I've acquired this treasure from ECM's early days. As for the music, what more can be expressed? - exceptional artists, a distinctly Brazilian vibe, and utterly unique. A sheer delight! The pressing is among the finest ECM has ever produced, a must-have for any audiophile's collection. That said, it might not be the most fulfilling listen for bebop enthusiasts, accustomed to the usual greats from the 50s and 60s. Truly magnificent!!!

The pressing is among the finest ECM has ever produced. A must-have for any audiophile's collection. That said, it might not be the most fulfilling listen for bebop enthusiasts accustomed to the legendary names of the 50s and 60s. Absolutely magnificent!!!
