Bahia, Gato Style
Like Coltrane's interpretation of Ary Barroso's immortal composition, "Bahia," Gato Barbieri makes it utterly his own. Accompanied by excellent Latin percussionists and berimbau (Nana Vasconcelos?), Barbieri turns this into a jazz freewheeler without losing touch with the Afro-Brazilian "essence." The use of the upper register of his horn does not clash at all with this melodic number.
