"Simply the best work of Airto ever! The musicians are the secret. The Fattoruso brothers and david Amaro Tha bass player Ringo Thielmann, this was his real group not a recording session studio group. I bouht it the first time in 1974 I was 11. This cd still is progressive jazz. Buyit and enjoy it. I like all the songs but my favorite is Fingers and Merry go round it gimes me a feeling of a little town Fiesta!"
Worth the wait!

"I was aware of Airto as a sideman to Chick Corea and others before I heard "Fingers". This solo effort was an eye-opener to just how versatile and nimble the man is. The other musicians on this recording lend a hand on some of Flora Purim's records as well, and are a great unit. I still have the "Fingers" lp, but it's nearly translucent from being played repeatedly."
Excellent !!

"Just like one of the reviewers, I've been digging really deep for this album for over 20 years. I first played it (LP format) in the 80's when I spent a weekend with my friends on the shores of Pacific Ocean. It was an awesome "soundtrack" of our care free days in the beach.
After a long quest I finally got it. Thanks to amazon."
