Btw, it's unbelievable that Azar's Brazilian-tinged masterpiece, "Summer Solstice", recorded in 1975 for Prestige, has not been reissued on CD yet, not even in Japan... That album features Brazilian masters Raul de Souza, Guilherme Franco (playing drums with his fascinating percussive approach!), Dom Salvador and Amaury Tristão plus American giants Ron Carter, Billy Hart and the late Albert Dailey, who recorded with João Gilberto & Stan Getz on "The Best of Two Worlds" as well as on an unreleased Miucha album.
