CD Reviews

This player deserves more US air time
Wayne W Emerson | Emerald Isle, NC USA | 11/27/1999
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I fell in love with Brasilian jazz my first trip to Rio. I've been there many times and was always amazed, visiting the little clubs, listening to a lot of great players. I don't remember how I found this guy, but, understanding music 'from the heart', Leo understands, and plays it that way. In my view, he is one of the most sensitive sax players I've ever heard - check out #3 on Black Pearls, you'll see what I mean..... I think it would be a great project for Leo to hook up with Bob James and Fourplay, and let Leo play, I mean feature him, write and produce songs that bring out his talent, give him lots of freedom. I rated this 4 stars, simply because of a couple of songs I skip pver, but all in all, it's great listening. And as a bassplayer, I've spent hours playing along with him."
A great album!

"Leo Gandelman is one of the best brazilian musicians. And 'Brazilian Soul' is simply a brilliant CD. Listen to it - especially 'Antigua'(Tom Jobim)- and you'll see I'm quite right."
A wonderful helping of Brazilian jazz!

"This is a great CD from an extraordinary jazz saxophone player and probably the biggest name in Brazilian jazz today. We got a chance to see Leo Gandelman perform a lot of these songs at the Blue Note in June. Maracatu is a superb song...his son played it alongside him that night, it was one of the best experiences of live music I've ever heard. If you are into this type of jazz, this is a "must have" collection."
