It is surprising that an album released so recently has gone out of print, Raul de Souza is one of those artists that are not idolized by everybody, in the other hand, it is very hard to find someone that doesn't like him, actually everybody likes Raul de Souza. I like it also very much, Raul de Souza has also, at least for me, nice characteristic, his album covers always brings a photo of a parrot or some kind of nature element, butterflies in this case.This is Raul de Souza - Rio - Featuring Conrad Herwig (1998), for Mix House. Amazing trombone album as Raul de Souza usually delivers. This time, Raul has the help of another trombonist, Conrad Herwig, participating intensively with trombone solos and also arrangements. Conrad Herwig is a renowned Jazz trombonist in the US, he has recorded and performed together with Joe Henderson, Jack DeJohnette, Paquito D'Rivera and others, now with the legendary Raul de Souza. At Loronix, all Brazilian trombonists are legendary. Tracks include:
01 - Rio (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
02 - Pra Ser Brasileira (Taiguara)
03 - Chora Tua Tristeza (Oscar Castro Neves / Luvercy Fiorini)
04 - Não Deu (Djavan)
05 - Íris (Djavan)
