RODRIGO TAVARES - Congo (Gatefold LP) (Sealed) (LP)

On his debut album "Congo", Brazilian guitarist Rodrigo Tavares combines meditative composition and improvisation with subtle experimental, yet sophisticated arrangements, reminiscent of the moods and rhythms of classical Brazilian artists such as Joao Gilberto, Dorival Caymmi, Tom Jobim, Milton Nascimento and Caetano Veloso, complemented by elements of jazz, post-rock, minimal and diverse global sounds. The Gatefold cover, designed by Andrea Gomes, is based on an original image by the renowned Brazilian painter Cristiano Lenhardt.
