Description

【Minas – Num Dia Azul】は、ブラジル音楽の魅力が存分に詰まった素晴らしいアルバムだ。例えば、「Céu e Mar」では、繊細なボーカルとアコースティックなギターが調和し、静かな海辺を思わせる穏やかな雰囲気を醸し出している。また、「Pão de Queijo」は、軽快で楽しいリズムが特徴の楽曲で、ブラジルの伝統的なパンの味をイメージさせるような楽しい雰囲気がある。さらに、「Mistérios」では、ジャズの要素が取り入れられた洗練されたアレンジが聴きどころであり、聴くたびに新しい発見がある。全体を通して、Minasが持つ独自の音楽スタイルと深い感性が存分に堪能できる、ファン必聴の一枚だ。

 

 

Minas 'Num Dia Azul' is a sublime slice of private press bossa nova meets jazzy MPB perfection. Warm and bubbling with youthful spirit, the music is simultaneously loose in swagger, yet slick and tight. The album was originally released in 1983 and reflects the great music coming out of Rio at the time, yet 'Num Dia Azul' wasn't recorded in Rio, but actually in the USA.

Recorded in North Carolina just after Patricia and Orlando Haddad had graduated from the North Carolina School of the Arts, the record was only released for the Brazilian market on their own Blueazul Records imprint. As with most private press labels, they could only afford to have it pressed in small quantities. To add to its later obscurity, hundreds of copies were also destroyed in a house fire. They say cream always rises to the top, and fast forward to the 2010s, the word amongst collectors and DJs was spreading about this mythical under-the-radar recording. People from across the globe were contacting Patricia and Orlando for more information, hoping to secure themselves a copy. Luckily the original tapes had remained with the artists and were in great condition, so in 2016 the pair ran a successful Kickstarter campaign to have it remastered and repressed.

For this Mr Bongo 2023 re-issue, we have tried to keep it as close to the original 1983 version as possible, both in the packaging and audio presentation. The CD version comes with bonus tracks. We are super proud to keep Patricia and Orlando's serene recordings in the circulation that they deserve to be. One for fans of Brazilian artists such as Burnier & Cartier, Edu Lobo and Joyce. We are sure those fans will lose themselves in the alluring textures of 'Num Dia Azul'.
