Legendary Brazilian bass player Sabá - founding member of Jongo Trio (with Cido Bianchi & Toninho Pinheiro) and Bossa Três (with Cesar Camargo Mariano & Toninho Pinheiro) at the office of Radio Gazeta - São Paulo, where he hosted a radio show. Everytime I used to go to São Paulo, working with such artists as Dom Um Romão, Carlos Barbosa-Lima, Eumir Deodato and Ithamara Koorax, I took them to be interviewed by Sabá.
Born Sebastião Oliveira da Paz in 1926, he died February 23, 2010 in São Paulo, Brazil. Sabá was also a member of the Dick Farney Trio and played for many years with Wilson Simonal as well as with Elis Regina, Jair Rodrigues, Casé etc.
