New Lee Ritenour

[Doctor Jeff]

New album called Brasil by Lee and Dave Grusin (who is almost 90 now btw). They are backed by an all-Brazilian band, with some very excellent vocals.

Very nice playing (of course), immaculate production. Reminiscent of Getz/Jobim, but with an updated rhythm sound.

Give it a listen.

Here's an interview (which I haven't had a chance to listen to yet) for more info:

Grusin and Ritenour always had a great repore together.I saw them 40 years ago in Avery Fisher Hall with the GRP Allstars and Patti Austin.One of my favorite all time concerts.These two guys may be older but still sound fantastic.
