{"product_id":"bud-shank-holiday-in-brazil-lp-vinyl","title":"Bud Shank – Holiday In Brazil","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"relix-editorial\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore bossa nova had a name, Bud Shank and Laurindo Almeida were already sketching its blueprint. This 1958 session captures a musical partnership deepening in real time, with Shank's alto saxophone and flute work finding a natural home in Almeida's harmonic world, a meeting of West Coast cool and Brazilian warmth that predates the António Carlos Jobim wave by years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1953, Brazilian master guitarist Laurindo Almeida and altoist\/flutist Bud Shank collaborated on their first LP for Richard Bock's Pacific Jazz label. Laurindo Almeida Quartet Featuring Bud Shank was a groundbreaking recording, blending American jazz with Brazilian samba for the first time, years before the advent of bossa nova. Almeida and Shank enjoyed such early success with the record that they reunited five years later for their second collaboration, Holiday in Brazil (alternatively titled Brazilliance, Vol. 2). Whereas Brazilliance, Vol. 1 was led by Almeida and focused on the traditional Brazilian influences, Vol. 2 allowed Shank room to contribute more of his signature silky soloing and energetic motifs. The vibe is almost as relaxed, but bristles with an adventurous energy and swing that serves Almeida's arrangements and solid guitar accompaniment perfectly. The session is immeasurably enhanced by the adept chops of bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Chuck Flores, while Dayton \"Bones\" Howe's warm and detailed recording brings forth every nuance of this inspired date. Our deluxe package reproduces the reverse-tip-on jacket and brown paper label of the original release. Like Barefoot Adventure (IMP6048\/IMP6057 LP \/ IMP8330 SACD), Holiday in Brazil is a perfect summer jazz confection: light, soulful, and breezy. It goes down easy and satisfies deeply. Impex Records is proud to reintroduce this musically stunning and sonically superb \"Holiday in Brazil.\" AAA 33.3rpm HQ-180g Vinyl LP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Simpatica (2:55)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Rio Rhapsody (3:57)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Nocturno (3:29)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Little Girl Blue (2:37)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Choro In \"A\" (2:30)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Mood Antigua (4:02)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. The Color Of Her Hair (1:58)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Lonely (3:53)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. I Didn't Know What Time It Was (2:47)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Carioca Hills (3:01)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 856276002619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Impex Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.12.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e LP Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- discogs-import --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"discogs-import\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e World Pacific Records (STEREO-1018); Impex Records (IMP6049)  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eReleased:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2026  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e US\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA1 Simpatica – 2:55\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA2 Rio Rhapsody – 3:57\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA3 Nocturno – 3:29\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA4 Little Girl Blue – 2:37\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA5 Choro In \"A\" – 2:30\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB1 Mood Antigua – 4:02\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB2 The Color Of Her Hair – 1:58\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB3 Lonely – 3:53\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB4 I Didn't Know What Time It Was – 2:47\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB5 Carioca Hills – 3:01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCredits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBud Shank – Alto Saxophone, Flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaurindo Almeida – Arranged By\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStan Levy – Cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBones Howe – Engineer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatty Roberts – Illustration (Cover Tapestry)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChris Bellman – Mastered By\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRichard Bock – Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"relix.shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54553162023230,"sku":"152903771","price":56.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4609\/5166\/files\/12634953154878-transparent-v2.png?v=1791435438","url":"https:\/\/reserveselects.myshopify.com\/products\/bud-shank-holiday-in-brazil-lp-vinyl","provider":"Reserve Selects","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
