"The Igor Prado Band’s Blues and Soul Sessions is an absolutely stunning album which is avery creative tour de force that sounds like the title should be ‘Sao Paulo’s tribute to Memphis Soul’. Igor is too smart for that as he doesn’t want to draw direct comparisons between his band and the famed Memphis house band which includes Booker T. and the M.Gs, the Memphis Horns and Isaac Hayes among others. The fact is these Brazilians can hold their own and prove it on this recording. The Igor Prado band includes brother, Yuri Prado on drums and bassist Rodrigo Mantovani, who channels Donald “Duck” Dunn for the entire program. The boys from Brazil are joined in the studio by an array of guest musicians including vocalists Curtis Salgado and Tia Carroll. If you would like to learn more about Igor Prado he was interviewed in the August edition of BLUES JUNCTION. I went with an Igor Prado original instrumental tune entitled, Funky Screwdriver." - David Mac (Blues Junction/USA)
