Arthur Verocai - Arthur Verocai LP *restock
A complete album masterpiece in every sense of the word, considered by many people to be one of the greatest ever made, regardless of genre.
Recorded at Studio Somil, Rio de Janeiro, in 1972, the album was produced, arranged, and directed by the self-taught Arthur Verocai. Previously he had worked on many records in various capacities with artists including Jorge Ben, Ivan Lins and Celia, but this album gave him the chance to do his thing in its purest form.
The 29 minute masterpiece, perfect in its arrangement and fusion of sonics, epitomises the sound of Brazil at the time; strings, guitars, pianos, breakbeats, bass lines, synthesisers, vocals from the wonderful Célia, Carlos Dafe and Oberdan (Banda Black Rio), plus percussion from Pedro Santos and Paulo Moura on sax. Bossa nova, samba, jazz, MPB, psychedelics and funk sit side by side effortlessly.
The album transcends the genre of Brazilian music, and infact all genres. Highlighted in part by the number of artists that have sampled from it; MF Doom, Ludacris & Common, Little Brother, Jneiro Jarel aka Dr Who Dat?, Dibiase and Action Bronson amongst others.
