Charlie Byrd | Sugarloaf Suite | CD
USED CD in VERY GOOD Condition
For this trio album with bassist Joe Byrd and
drummer Wayne Phillips, Charlie Byrd (who long ago became an innovator by
bringing the classical guitar into jazz) performs a bossa-nova oriented program
which, in addition to a pair of Antonio Carlos Jobim tunes, Luiz Bonfa's
"The Gentle Rain" and Dori Caymmi's "Saudade Da Bihia,"
includes four of Byrd's own compositions in the style. The music is typically
exquisite, pretty and subtle and the performances grow in interest with each
listen.
