Descrição

‘Um disco destinado a ter impacto igual ao da estreia-solo de Jaco Pastorius’, sentencia o historiador Doug Payne no texto de apresentação de ‘Grooves in the Temple’, primeiro CD do baixista, compositor e arranjador Jorge Pescara. Nesta superprodução de Arnaldo DeSouteiro para o selo JSR, elaborada durante quatro anos entre Rio e NY, Pescara reuniu um elenco de all-stars: de Dom Um Romão (Weather Report) a Laudir de Oliveira (Chicago), passando por Ithamara Koorax, Luiz Bonfá, Claudio Zoli, Eumir Deodato, João Palma, Paula Faour, Alfredo Dias Gomes, Claudio Infante, além de Guto Goffi, Maurício Barros e Zé Carlos Bigorna (estes três do Barão Vermelho) e muitos outros.

A capa é assinada pelo mais importante fotógrafo na história do jazz, Pete Turner (George Benson, Weather Report, Freddie Hubbard, Chet Baker, Ron Carter etc). No repertório, ousadas recriações de hits de Jimi Hendrix e Led Zeppelin, além de temas de Pescara dedicados a seus ídolos Jaco Pastorius, Marcus Miller e Tony Levin.
