Description
The ââ¬ÅR3ââ¬Â in this Brazilian-based bandââ¬â¢s name refers to brothers Rafael, Renato and Roger Rocha who together comprise its heart and soul. The ââ¬ÅSpecialââ¬Â pertains to just about everything else on this impressive debut album. Indeed, there could be even more ââ¬ÅRââ¬â¢sââ¬Â in the title, as the pianist is Flavio Rocha (presumably another sibling), Robson Rodrigues plays electric bass and Joabe Reis trombone. But those three Rââ¬â¢s will more than suffice. And while no more than nine musicians are listed on any particular number, that is misleading, as Roger Rocha doubles from time to time as a complete saxophone section and brother Rafael does the same for trombones, thanks to overdubbing. Thatââ¬â¢s not to say that everything is strictly ââ¬Åbig band,ââ¬Â as the trumpets sit out on three tracks while Bruno Santos plays flugelhorns (plural) on another with Roger on tenor and soprano sax and Rafael on Fender Rhodes.
