For the first in a series of must-have reissues of obscure Brazilian treats, Optimo Music and Selva Discos have joined forces to offer up a new pressing of Fernando Falcao’s superb 1981 debut, “Memoria Das Aguas”. The eight-track set has long been considered something of a slept-on and hard-to-find classic, with Falcao conjuring up an octet of tracks that brilliantly join the dots between neo-classical movements, dreamy, percussion-led soundscapes (see the sublime “Amanhecer Tabajara (A Alceu Valenca)”), spiraling big band Afro-Brazilian jazz (“Ladeira Dos Inocentes”), intoxicating classical-jazz fusion (“Revoada”) and experimental, beat-free sound collages (“Mercado”). In a word: exceptional.
