2024 repress; LP version. Far Out Recordings presents
Hermeto Pascoal
's remarkable self-titled debut album. Recorded in 1970 at A&R studios in New York, the album features certified North American titans including
Ron Carter
,
Hubert Laws
,
Joe Farrel
, and
Googie Coppola
, and Brazilian stars
Airto Moreira
and
Flora Purim
(who also produced the album). While it was Hermeto's first album released under his own name, he had spent the decade or so prior making a name for himself in Brazil and internationally as a composer, arranger and instrumentalist with groups including
Sambrassa Trio
,
Quarteto Novo
, and
Brazilian Octopus
, before going on to work with (amongst countless others)
Edu Lobo
,
Antonio Carlos Jobim
,
Donald Byrd
,
Airto Moreira
, and
Miles Davis
, who allegedly called Hermeto "
one of the most important musicians on the planet
." With Hermeto's otherworldly orchestral arrangements, ghostly vocal performances from Flora Purim and Googie Coppola, and the inimitable drumming and percussion stylings of Airto Moreira,
Hermeto
easily rivals some of the oft-celebrated MPB albums of the early 1970s, sitting somewhere between the string-heavy magic of
Arthur Verocai
's 1972 debut and the unplacable early experimentalism of
Pedro Santos
' 1968 album
Krishnanda
. With his phenomenal natural musical genius and a ceaseless sense of creative freedom, Hermeto is widely known for using unconventional objects to make music. In the album's sleeve notes, Airto highlights the track "Velório (Mourning)" explaining how Hermeto filled 36 apple juice bottles with different amounts of water and tuned them to precise pitches in order to create the beguiling harmonies heard. The reissue of Hermeto Pascoal's
Hermeto
follows Far Out's recent unveiling of a previously unheard Hermeto Pascoal live concert
Planetario da Gavea
from 1981 (FARO 229CD/LP), and 2017's release of Hermeto Pascoal's lost 1976 studio album:
Viajando Com O Som
(FARO 200CD/LP).
