Sabor de Amor is the fourth album from Brazilian soulman Hyldon, singer and instrumentalist, who formed, alongside Tim Maia and Cassiano, the legendary triad of Brazilian soul music in the 1970s. Sabor de Amor (Continental, 1981) is perhaps his most consistent work. On it, Hyldon is back once again by his trusted buddies Azymuth with a stellar lineup of musicians, including Alexandre Malheiros (bass), Ivan "Mamao" Conti (drums), Sérgio Carvalho (Hammond organ and Fender piano), Zé Roberto Bertrami (synthesizers), Antonio Adolfo (Yamaha piano), Marcio Montarroyos (flugelhorn), Renato Piau (guitar), Mario Monteiro "Picolé" (drums) and the Grupo Alma Brasileira (percussion). Produced by the legendary jazz-funk band Azymuth. Released originally in 1981 on Continental.

First reissue in 25 years of the Brazilian jazz holy grail, licensed from Universal Music Brazil. A mix between traditional music of northeast Brazil, bebop, jazz, and folk to create an organic sound. Featuring Hermeto Pascoal, Airto Moreira, Theo De Barros, and Heraldo Do Monte. Quarteto Novo only released one album, yet they number amongst one of the more influential acts in Brazilian music. Originally set up as a "Trio Novo" by a pharmaceutical company who wanted a live band at an event, they were then picked up by Geraldo Vandré (who was, at that time in 1966, the winner of a Brazilian music popularity competition) for a tour of the Brazilian northeast. After the tour, the trio -- comprised of a very young Airto Moreira (percussions), composer, solo artist and soundtrack composer, producer and arranger Theo de Barros (bass and subsequent guitarist) and Heraldo do Monte (guitar) who also went on to have a fairly successful career -- was joined by multi-instrumentalist Hermeto Pascoal. Recorded in 1967, this was the first album for Airto, and it was a hugely influential release -- mixing the traditional music of northeast Brazil with bebop jazz and folk. Quarteto Novo emphasized northeastern Brazilian music and acoustic instruments for an "organic" sound. This first reissue in 25 years of this holy grail is a must for any lover of Brazilian jazz, samba and folk music. Jazzybelle is a new label launched by Olivier Rosset (founder of Chronowax) and Elvin Pagiras, from Modulor (key French distributor who are also behind renowned reissue labels We Want Sounds and Le Très Jazz Club). Jazzybelle will be focused on Brazilian musical gems, but not exclusively.
