Egon presents Arthur Verocai

verocai studioIn the usual rainy Netherlands, these last weeks of sunshine and August heath feel quite amazing. Looking for some music that suits this temperature, I was happy to stumble upon an article by Egon (also known as manager of Stones Throw records) about producer, arranger and guitar player Arthur Verocai.

When exploring music from Brasil, Arthur Verocai might be the perfect introduction. Combining folk, funk and jazz, his self-titled debut album from 1972 is known as a classic for bringing Brasilian music into new directions. Mr. Verocai still performs these days, and did a show in Los Angeles earlier this year. For Egon that was the perfect reason to dig into his vinyl collection and shine some light on his favourite Arthur Verocai productions. Listen and read here.

PS: On the same NPR website I also enjoyed the article ‘A Eulogy for The Boombox‘ – “When the music was loud and unavoidable, we had to listen to each other.”
