"This is one of the greatest Baden Powell LPs of the 60's, Baden Powell Swings with Jimmy Pratt. This is a short set with less than 30 minutes,

with the accompaniment of Copinha (flute), Moacir Santos (sax and vocals), Sandoval (clarinet), Sergio Barroso (bass), Jimmy Pratt (drums)

and Rubens Bassini (percussion). The piano player is not credit. The arrangements are unusual for a Baden album, featuring a lot of flute and

oboe lines on all tracks. The outcome is a breezy Jazz album mixed with Bossa."

In 1966, Swing drummer Jimmy Pratt was visiting Brasil as part of Caterina Valente's traveling band. Label owner Alouysio de Riveira jumped at

the oportunity and paired the gifted drummer with his star guitarist, Baden Powell for an LP release. Not content with the pair, he threw maestro

Moacir Santos into the mix as saxophonist/music director and wisely chose two of his themes from the "Coisas" series for inclusion. Another

happy early sketch is a "Theme number 1" which later resurrected into "Vou por Ai" in Tempo Feliz, a later release by Elenco (de Riveira's

label).

The opener, "Deve Ser Amor" is the definitive version of a very ornate ii-V-I groove that Baden also recorded with Vinicius de Moraes and

Odette Lara, his French band and Herbie Mann.

Baden loved Swing as a teenager and he clearly enjoyed himself making this record. ~ Aldo Mosca
