Review by Mark Hodgson

The Brazilian Jazz Stompers have released their self-titled album, and it's an absolute delight for jazz enthusiasts. The album features ten tracks, each showcasing the band's exceptional musicianship and deep appreciation for Brazilian jazz.

The album starts with "Samba de Orly," a lively track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's use of traditional Brazilian instruments, such as the cuica and pandeiro, adds a unique and authentic touch to their sound.

Other standout tracks include "O Pato," a playful tune that features a memorable saxophone solo, and "Agua de Beber," a bossa nova classic that the band performs with effortless grace.

One of the strengths of the album is the band's ability to seamlessly blend different elements of jazz and Brazilian music. They incorporate elements of swing and bebop into their arrangements, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh.
