Transcription
Overview
Randy in Brasil was produced and arranged by Ruria Duprat at the popular Banda Sonora Studios in Brasil and features a band of Brazilian musicians.[1] The album took three years to come to fruition[2] and features compositions by Brazilian musicians Djavan, Gilberto Gil, João Bosco, Ivan Lins[2] The only performers to join Brecker on every track are keyboardist Ruria Duprat and guitarist Ricardo Silveira.[3] Gilson Peranzzetta plays on his composition, "Fazendo Hora".[4]
Conception
The idea of recording in Brazil was from a meeting of Brecker with Marco Bosco in Japan. Bosco told him of the record company in Brazil that he was starting with Ruria Duprat, and invited him to record for them.[2] Was supposed to be released in Brazil on Duprat's Rainbow Records, but the label was never fully developed.[5]
