EXTREMELY RARE PRIVATE LP 70’S BRAZILIAN JAZZ PSYCH

Deluxe reissue in super nice thick carton cover + OBI + insert

Mandala made only one eponymous album, recorded in 1971 but released only in 1976. A very rare and influential album, featuring future members of Grupo Um (Nazário and Zeca Assumpção who also played with Hermeto and Egberto Gismonti) and Pau Brasil (Nelson Ayres) – two seminal bands from the Brazilian instrumental scene of the 80s. The sound is a mix of Jazz Fusion with a Brazilian footprint – with a dash of psychedelic atmosphere and the spiced influence of oriental music.

Tracklist: A01 – Pitha’ta – A02. Alga – A03. Matilho – B01. Estilingue – B02. Nadava – B03. El-Baion
