Usually ships in 3-6 business days

Limited 180gm audiophile vinyl LP pressing. Touching You, Touching Me (1979) is perhaps Airto's most polished record. The album hit #47 in the Jazz Albums Chart in 1979. Self-produced, he learned much of the technique he employed from the best-selling recordings of the time in all Pop genres. The dancefloor Jazz R&B of 'Amajour' opens the set. 'Heartbeat' is a showcase for bassist Alphonso Johnson, pianist Michel Colombier, and the synthesizer of Hugo Fattoruso. 'Toque de Cuica' is Brazilian dancefloor Funk, while 'Move It On Up' is hard rock anthem and a reggae groover. Touching You, Touching Me is a highly enjoyable record; several of it's tunes could easily be placed on a Moreira best-of compilation. Amajour, Partido Alto, Open Space, Heartbeat, Toque de Cuica, Move It on Up, And Then We Touched the Sky, Tempos Altras (Dreams Are Real), It's Not a Ballad, Introduction to the End
