Have a listen to Amilton Godoy

Amilton Godoy (b. 1941) is an incredible Brazilian pianist from São Paulo. He’s been with the Zimbo Trio for nearly 60 years. All of his recordings are worth a listen. There is a depth in his voicings/harmonies that is amazing.

For something in the Bossa PianoGroove style, he recorded Zimbo Convida [Invites] Sonny Stitt in 1979. Here’s his take on Jobim’s “Corcovadao.”

And following is “O batráquio,” an original tune that I’ve recently listened to every day in various forms . The saxophonist, Harvey Wainapel, has been a regular with Jovino in his various groups for some time. I hope you enjoy! :musical_keyboard:
