This is my first LP post for 2025, starting with the greatest of all named Arthur Verocai, and mentioning that I was lucky enough to see him perform live last year with our Metropole Orchestra in the Concertgebouw in Amsterdamm, an unforgettable best live performance, there ain't no other!
Saudade Demais is an open declaration of love for Rio de Janeiro and Bossa Nova. The lyrics in most of these songs paint a musical scene of that marvelous city. With that inspiration, nothing goes wrong. The guest musicians in the album augment Verocai’s amazing guitar playing and exceptional songwriting skills. Here we find Raul de Souza (trombone), Marcio Montarroyos (trumpet), Toninho Horta (acoustic guitar), Robertinho Silva (drums), Cristovão Bastos (piano), Luiz Alves (bass) and the wonderful voice of Sanny Alves singing the fascinating lyrics in the album. Alves is a great performer who feels quite at ease with Verocai’s music.
