(4 out of 5 stars)

"Recorded shortly before his death in 2000, Baden Plays Vinicius is a collection of songs that guitarist Baden Powell co-wrote with lyricist Vinicius de Moraes. Produced by Armando Pittigliani, who produced Baden's first album in 1959, this album consists of 8 of Baden's and Vinicius' songs, played in Powell's unusually ethereal solo style.



Amazon did not supply a track listing as of this writing, here it is:



1. Consolacao

2. Tempo Felix

3. Apelo

4. Samba Em Preludio

5. Valsa Sem Nome

6. So Por Amor

7. Samba de Bencao

8. Deixa



At only 36 minutes, the amount of music is disappointing but it is only one of two Powell CDs that I'm aware of where he plays solo guitar in a studio with no singing.
