Dori Caymmi - Kicking Cans (1992)

I would like to start showing Dori Caymmi from his erlier works, but since I knew this one has gone so prematurely out of print, I could not resist on making. Meet Dori Caymmi, the son of Dorival Caymmi and the internationally acclaimed composer, singer, arranger and producer. Dori Caymmi began very early to study music, taking piano lessons at the age of eight, being also student of the legendary Maestro Moacir Santos. Dori Caymmi music is present in many important Brazilian albums throughout decades as acoustic guitar player, arranger, composer and many others roles. Let's feedback the first Dori Caymmi release at Loronix.

This is Dori Caymmi - Kicking Cans (1992), for Warner. This is the kind of album that you will spin many times from now one. Dori Caymmi singing is smooth, tender and his arrangements are really beautiful. Kicking Cans features top-notch musicians, such as: Herbie Hancock, Claudio Slon, Brandford Marsalis, Ivan Lins, Paulinho da Costa, among others. Arrangements and production by Dori Caymmi.
