Airto
Seeds on the Ground was percussion master Airto's second album and his final release on the Buddah label. Following sessions with the likes of Miles Davis, Paul Desmond, Wayne Shorter, and Astrud Gilberto, Airto began a solo career that often found him collaborating with vocalist Flora Purim. Here, Airto, Purim, bassist Ron Carter, guitarist Severino de Oliveira, and multi-instrumentalist Hereto Pascoal deliver a fusion of bossa nova, free jazz, psych rock, and Brazilian folk music that remains exciting and beyond classification. Long out of print on vinyl, Real Gone Music brings Seeds On The Ground: The Natural Sounds Of Airto back on shelves, pressed on ocean blue vinyl and housed in a replica of the original gatefold sleeve. The pressing is limited to just 1,000 copies.
