Interesting coincidence, another very wonderful member of "Amazônia has just reviewed a few recordings from Portugal.

(See Greg Taylor's interesting and informative reviews)

This recording, from Zé Eduardo and his trio exhibits a fine exponent of "free jazz" with ritmic pulse, from the most spirited free blowing to incorporations of Reggae, Brasilian, Calypso and "straight-up" jazz and "speaking" a more consonant jazz language.
Portugal and its wonderful musical tradition widely ignored, until this current "World Musics" fase in USA, and the instant information age we exist in at this time!

The Fado tradition(especially, the commercialized efforts of "Madredeus") and, possibly the late (and GREAT ) Carlos Paredes are really the only attention Portugal receives , musically speaking.

Here , however, on "Jazzar No Zeca", with the noun jazz transformes into a verb!, the incredible saxofone and poliritmic percussion, along with Zezinho's conversational bass (contrabasse), from a trio that would achieve more acclaim if from USA, one of the Northern European countries, or from France/ Italia, this set just "smokes" with intensity!

Sax -tenor is performed admirably by Jesus Santandreu, and drums by Bruno Pedroso.
Saxofonistics range from straight tone, to overblowing/biting reed, and , in the Gary Bartz (NTU troop vintage) and Ian Underwood (Frank Zappa) tradition, some electric "wah-sax".

Occasional "duck -call" bursts remind of John Zorn.

This free madness is more "controlled" than some of the angrier offerings of US jazz artistas of the 60s , but a sense of humor permeates the session. (including some audible laughs).

Now only to advise, for free jazz afficionados who keep looking for solutions , to the more traditionally oriented listener who like to get "outside the box", as the current USian slang expression says, this "off the maps" trio of crazyloucos produces a delightful musical journey for all !
Each composition contains words, even as none are sung or spoken , em Português.

For anyone who can read the language, I will not reveal some additional joy to this lovely packaged CD, but the words are , IMO, essential to the compositions, as they add color and context to them. (Of course, if you do not speak português, the musics hold up on their own just fine! )Of course, these words are very much in the realm of progressivly political statements!

Viva Zezinho!

A small starburst of inspiration!
