"For years an influential force on the shape of US jazz, Brazil's musicians became a vital part of the American scene during the early 70s ... Though recorded in bookending decades to the 70s, the unmistakabley Brazilian mix of polyrhythmic ballast, righteous swing and sunshine melodies of the two opening tracks - Airto's "Samba De Flora" and Duke Pearson and Flora Purim's "Sandalia Dela" - provide apposite examples of the key ingredients that the US public found so irresistible. Other songs show the flexibility of Brazilian fusion, with Deodato's "Skyscraper" presenting tight-knit big band jazz, Milton Nascimento's "Catavento" adding bossa-fied acoustic folk, and João Donato's "Almas Irm̃as" a rugged brand of funk"

"The curators at Soul Jazz rarely misstep in putting together a new compilation, and Brazil USA 70 is no exception. The vast majority of tracks here are well worth a listen on their own. Assembled as they are on this new release, they set a remarkable scene, mapping out intersections between a pair of nations arguably essential to contemporary jazz. Positioned at this spatial and temporal crossroads, Brazil USA 70 provides a very good sampler of a brilliant musical phenomenon"
