Azymuth - Outubro [FARO 190LP Reissue UK 2016 24-Bit FLAC]

I have featured Azymuth before on the ESWA blog with their fabulous Jazz Carnival single. A few years back, a small UK reissue label obtained permission to repress the long deleted Outubro album on 180gm vinyl. If you don't know the work of Azymuth, you may have heard of a certain band from Manchester who have worn their Azymuth influences well since their 1981 recordings. In fact there are a few snippets from this record which may have been borrowed by said band over the years. Also, fans of classy funk may also want to investigate my suggestion that Maracana is clearly the best track ever to be named after a football stadium.

A1 Papasong
A2 500 Miles High
A3 Pantanal (Swamp)
A4 Dear Limmertz
A5 Carta Pro Airto (Letter To Airto)
B1 Outubro (October)
B2 Maracana
B3 Un Amigo (A Friend)
B4 Dear Limmertz Prelude

This is an improved re-work of my ESWA 2.0 post from May 2017 from the original files.
