This three guitar group worked together in 1985 and recorded, as far as I know, just this single album. At the time Sharon was only beginning her career--this was her first recording, Laurindo had recently been the heart of the LA 4, and of course Larry was a premier jazz guitarist. They seem to have such fun playing together. The program is a mix of originals, Brazillian pieces, Manuel de Falla's Canciones Populares Espanolas, and the famous adagio from Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez, on which Larry Coryell, two-thirds of the way through the piece, plays a skittering improvised steel-string guitar solo that ices the musical cake. Find this if you can.

PROPER...again...with a twist

The people who are producing these gems at Proper in the U.K. must be commended for at least knowing a broad range of great music. I have heard from a friend that the Baden Powell part of this set is great...I can say, as both a fan, and as a friend of the late guitar genius from Brazil, Laurindo Almeida, that his portion is 5 star. Laurindo started his own label - Brazilliance Records - and this small portion can be found on it. "Escadoo", "O Barquinho", "The Samba Medley (from 'Black Orpheus')" are all great Almeida treatments. Anyone who really wants to delve into the heart and soul of Laurindo's favorite stuff should look for "Formation Of Brazillian Music" on the Brazilliance label - hopefully still in existence, and hopefully being run by his wife, Deltra - herself a great singer. There are many more Brazilliance works, as Almeida was a great composer, player, and proponent of Brazilian music, both popular and classical, but my favorite is the aformentioned "Formation..", which features the stunning 'Brazilian Popular Suite' by Brazilian composer Radames Gnattali. Brazilliance Records is, hopefully, still run out of Sherman Oaks, California.
