Luigi Beats - Vanderbilt/sampl@Robert Vanderbilt - A Message Especially From God

From the Gilles Peterson curated collection 'To Those Of Earth... And Other Worlds]
Out 30th October 2015 on Strut
Order: https://lnk.to/GillesSunRA

Originally released on the LP 'New Steps' (HDP 25-26). Written and Arranged by Sun Ra. Published by Enterplanetary Koncepts. Recorded in Rome, 2nd and 7th January 1978. 

Sun Ra: Crumar Mainman, keyboards, piano, vocals
Michael Ray: trumpet, vocals
John Gilmore: tenor saxophone, percussion, vocals
Luqman Ali: drums, vocals

From the album's liner notes:
In January 1978, Sun Ra brought a quartet to Italy. He bought himself a Crumar Mainman keyboard, then made two double albums in Rome. His new drummer, Luqman Ali, had been in the Arkestra in Chicago; Sun Ra hadn’t brought a bassist, so programmed some keyboard ostinatos; his trumpeter, Michael Ray, broke into stratospheric runs, battling John Gilmore in furious improvisations. Gilmore was closer to Coltrane now than ever been and they fittingly made a driving version of ‘My Favorite Things’. But laments like ‘When There Is No Sun’ are equally inspired.

Following 2019’s release of Azymuth’s Demos (1973-75), two more home-recorded demo tracks by the Brazilian psychedelic jazz-funk masters have surfaced from a tape in drummer Ivan ‘Mamao Conti’s private archive. These five-decade old recordings by the young band show the maturity, musicianship and distinctive style that saw Azymuth become one of the most important groups in Brazilian history. 

Featuring an instrumental take on iconic pop song writing team Roberto Carlos and Erasmo Carlos’ 1969 Jovem Guarda hit “As Curvas da Estrada de Santos”, and spacey psych-folk oddity “Ze e Parana” on the b-side, the new 7” release via Far Out Recordings shines yet more light on this critical period for Azymuth.  

As is the case with many of Brazil’s most well-known artists, Roberto Carlos had been backed by Bertrami, Malheiros and Conti either on stage, in the studio, or with compositions (in Bertami’s case) since the late sixties. Conti notes that “As Curvas da Estrada de Santos” was a big hit in Brazil when it came out in ’69 and had already been covered by Elis Regina a year later. 

But where Elis’ version and indeed Roberto Carlos’ original were grand pop-rock ballads, Azymuth’s take is a moody, melodic jazz excursion, featuring Bertami’s incredible Hammond organ, Fender Rhodes and grand piano juggling, Ivan ‘Mamao’ Conti’s distinctively tough drums, and unusually, Alex Malheiros plays a double bass instead of an electric one.

As the title suggests, “Ze e Parana” is guitarist Joao Americo (Parana) playing alongside Bertami’s Rhodes comping, synth embellishments and dreamy wordless vocals. Aside from being credited as the composer and guitarist on “Linha do Horizonte” a track from Azymuth’s debut album which would become the theme tune for a famous novella, Parana has to this day, remained relatively unknown. 

Both tracks were recorded in Jose Roberto Bertrami’s house in Rio de Janiero at some point between 1973-75. These tracks were not recorded in a professional studio, meaning the sound quality differs from other Azymuth releases. At Far Out we take great pride and extreme care in ensuring our releases and reissues are produced to the best possible sound quality. In this case the original source material – the cassette tapes – had not aged well and were considerably damaged. The sound has been restored to the best possible condition but there is still some noticeable tape hiss and slight distortion on ‘Ze e Parana’. For this reason, we strongly advise listening to preview clips before buying this release.
