FAROUT Pure (Best Of Far Out)

Review "Boldly Brazilian, with a snaking samba that winds itself around subtle bass riffs with the passion of carnival street swing ..." -- www.bbc.co.uk "Fans will rejoice anew at evergreen tracks like 'Tudo Que Podia Ser', 'O Lance', 'Quern Com Quern' and 'Carnical" -- IDJ "For Azymuth fans this will no doubt be a godsend.." -- Songlines - The World Music Magazine Product Description Combining funk, soul and jazz with samba, Azymuth are responsible for creating a sound and genre of their own that they named Samba Doido (Crazy Samba). They have produced over 20 albums in three decades together including a UK Top 20 hit, "Jazz Carnival". PURE features the best of Azymuths music for Far Out Recordings from 1995 to 2006. All newly re-mastered, the compilation features tracks from their first four albums for the label - 'Carnival (1996), Woodland Warrior (1998), Pieces Of Ipanema (1999) and Before We Forget (2000) which are all now deleted - plus an exclusive new track "Morning" and a bonus CD of deleted remixes plus another new exclusive. PURE will be an essential purchase for all Azymuth fans as well as a great introduction for newcomers. The Bonus Remix CD is sure to appeal to those into more electronic and remix culture and should help PURE become Azymuths best selling CD for Far Out. They embark on a European tour in May 2006 in support of the CD. May/June tour dates to include Cork, Dublin, Southampton, Cambridge, London, Brighton, Edinburgh, Dundee, Manchester & Glasgow.
