Eumir Deodato - Ideias (1964)

If you have been monitoring CBox yesterday and today, you will certainly remember several friends talking about the next Eumir Deodato concert in Brazil. The excitement is great. Caetano and Luiz Harding had already purchased their tickets and the concert is probably sold out by this time. However, Deodato will make it only in Sao Paulo. This post is to bring some happiness in the earth of people who cannot make it, kindly sent by Mr. X. zecalouro presents one of the first Eumir Deodato albums and a music video with Eumir Deodato performing Superstrut, live in Finland. The date is uncertain and my better guess is 2002 or later.

This is Eumir Deodato - Ideias (1964), for Odeon, with musical direction by Maestro Lyrio Panicalli and arrangements by Eumir Deodato. It will be really nice to check these extremes, an early Eumir Deodato, which I'm presenting a picture available at the back cover of this album with the late Eumir Deodato performing Superstrut, a very old song that sounds fresh as made last month. Personnel listing is also of note and is available bellow. Tracks include:

Notem o quanto o Durval Ferreira aparece no Nix.
Nesse álbum do Deodato 4 em 12 são dele. E não são as mais manjadas.
Sou fã de carteirinha do Durval e do Maurício.
Fico contente quando vejo músicos do gabarito de um Deodato tocando os temas dele.

Esse é um Eumir do tempos bons (não por ser 64), de arranjos carinhosamente tratados, burilados. Ainda sem os Zaratustras do sucesso.

O video é de 2002 mesmo.

Não conheço muito do Deodato, alguém poderia falar um pouco sobre a carreira dele? Pelo que vi no video ele toca funk... Gostaria de conhecer mais.

Obrigado

Late Eumir Deodato? I thought he was dead for a moment then! Thankfully he is not! :)

The Video was shot 20.7.2002 at the Pori Jazz Festival - I saw the gig, but I can't say I was that impressed.
Then, on the other side, the year of 2002 was a very good year for Brazilian music in Finland with exceptional guests. We had Wanda Sá, Roberto Menescal, Danilo Caymmi et.al. visiting us in March and Marcos Valle playing a club gig in June. I even met him - a very nice guy.

O som de Eumir Deodato é inconfundível..comecei a conhecer melhor este som com os álbuns do "Os Catedráticos"

Great cover. Very simple but quite attractive.
I do not know why but I do prefer a drawing on the cover to photos of the musicians; for me, it prepares the atmosphere for the listening of the music.

Thanks Mr. X and zeca!
