Luiz Henrique - Mestico (1976)


Luiz Henrique Rosa (born November 21, 1938) was a guitar player from Brazil and even he was not so popular wordwilde, he was a very unique musicians.

He started with his bossa nova career during the Sixties and recorded some albums on a very high level.

This is his last album and it´s another piece of fantastic, realxed and exciting music.

Unfortunately he died 1985 in a car crash. We lost a really amazing musician !

This last LP, Mestiço, released after Barra Limpa and Popcorn by Verve during his stay in the US. This album is really different from the first solo LP and these two later works. Mestiço is exactly what the name supposes to be, a fusion of 70's influences approaching psycho, progressive rock with jazz arrangements.
