Scene Ecology Tamba 4 grew out of Tamba Trio, one of Brazil’s key bossa-jazz groups, expanding the lineup when Dório Ferreira joined on bass and guitar.
Studio Lore We and the Sea was recorded at Rudy Van Gelder’s New Jersey studio for Creed Taylor’s early CTI/A&M period, linking Brazilian samba-jazz to American audiophile jazz production.
Collector Lore The album later became prized by jazz and Brazilian-music collectors, partly because its smooth surface hides serious arranging, rhythm work, and cross-cultural studio craft.
