Compilation of early Seventies Brazilian jazz

(4 out of 5 stars)
"from website:
Quartin was a label started by producer Roberto Quartin set up with the sole objective of bringing together the new young up and coming musicians of the Rio scene of that era (1970 - 71). The music is a representation of that time, dark and moody, deep jazz, digging into the Latin influences of the region i.e. bossa and afro samba.
What you have here are the highlights of the catalogue and some unissued tracks remastered and repackaged.
Reviews:
'A wonderful compilation of early Seventies Brazilian jazz.' The Independent.
'An excellent album which selects tracks from the shortlived but hugely influential Rio based label'. Straight No Chaser
======
Many of the tracks feature tenor sax player Victor Assis Brasil.
