-[ Dusty Groove review ]------------------------------------------------------
One of the grooviest cats of the 60s -- heard here in an amazing array of
jazz, bossa, and soundtrack recordings! Lalo Schifrin first rose to fame
working in the group of Dizzy Gillespie, but by the time of these sides he was
already stepping out strongly on his own -- as one of the freshest voices in
60s jazz, both a writer and player whose music forever transformed the sound
of his generation! Schifrin's music is often heavy on bossa influences, but
quickly steps into soul as well -- mixing the best elements of both genres in
search of the hippest sort of groove -- the sort best known from his famous
soundtracks, but which is heard here in an array of wonderful Verve sides from
the 60s. CD features 18 tracks in all -- including "How To Open At Will The
Most Beautiful Window", "Machinations", "Lalo's Bossa Nova", "Secret Code",
"The Man From Thrush", "The Wave", "Mannix", "Dissolving", "Agnus Dei", "Bossa
Antique", "Prelude #2", and "Silvia" -- plus "Theme From Joy House", recorded
with Jimmy Smith, and "The Fakir", with Cal Tjader.
