The promotional copy reads well enough to say it all:
Though they came from radically different cultures and found their way
into Jazz via widely divergent routes, Gabor Szabo and Gary McFarland
formed an all - too brief working relationship that produced a
spectacular range of solo and collaborative works spanning Jazz, Bossa
Nova, Psychedelia, Indian Raga, Hungarian Folk, Orchestral and Film
Music.
Focusing on the mid - sixties years with Prestige, Verve and Impulse,
this edition comprises highlights from Gypsy 66, Spellbinder, Jazz Raga,
The Sorcerer, Simpatico, The In Sound, Scorpio and Other Signs and
McFarland’s score for Eye of the Devil and includes such impossible
rarities as Gary s characteristically serene performances of Margo
Guryan’s Rivergirl and The Dreamer by Antonio Carlos Jobim. |
