DESCRIPTION:
One of the many superb tracks from Filo's 1999 release; 'Cantando Um Samba'.

Personnel: Filo Machado (vocals, arranger, guitar, keyboards, percussion); Thierry Galliano (guitar); Clayber De Souza (harmonica); Rodrigo Botter Maio (soprano saxophone); Pichu Borrelli (piano, bass); Victor Machado, Serge Munuera (keyboards); Myriam Bauer, Chritian Pacchiaudi (bass); Alain Ruard, Serginho Machado, Fabio Canella (drums); Jean Luc Dan (percussion). Principally recorded at Estudio 440HZ, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Includes liner notes by Mark Holston and Rick Warm. Guitarist and vocalist Fil" Machado shines on this collection of ebullient sambas. With just one or two guests on most tracks, Machado frames the 12 songs here with brusque playing and a smooth, elegant voice that enriches all the material he takes on. Among many highlights, "Tema Discorcido" is the most beautiful. ~ John Bush
