While its sun-kissed arrangements and insistent rhythms clearly evoke its Brazilian origins, Arthur Verocai nevertheless seems to exist somewhere far outside of space and time.

This classic Brazilian jazz record is a masterpiece in my eyes (and ears). Vibes just don't get much better than this.

Arthur Verocai is a master at what he does. His heartfelt vocals combined with his sense for arranging/orchestration is impeccable. It’s warm, groovy, and gentle. The songs are short, Arthur gives you just enough music to hook you and leave you wanting more. Deserves so much more recognition.
