ANGEL AV RELEASES JAZZY JOE
Joe Pereira popularly known as ‘Jazzy Joe’ has come a long way since he picked up a violin in Goa way back in 1934. Little Jazzy Joe, all of seven, set off for his first music lessons under the portuguese solfegio system. Lessons that would see him through show business for the next seventy years and more! Today virtuoso saxophonist ‘Jazzy Joe’ is India’s most popular and accomplished jazz musician. His long and eventful career has spanned just about every live jazz avenue from clubs and hotels to concerts and festivals worldwide. He takes the stage to enthrall audiences with an exuberance that has to be seen to be believed. One of the pillars in the foundation of Indian film’s music industry and featured soloist in countless commercial recordings, Jazzy Joe had yet to record his own album for reasons that would not agree with his artistic sensibilities. Angel AV, Goa’s own record label has taken the initiative to record Jazzy Joe and launch India’s first straightahead jazz album. Co-produced by Orlando Fernandes and Colin D’Cruz, this album features some of the most popular jazz standards laced with flavours of Goa! Over seventy years of Jazzy Joe is finally recorded with strong support from virtuosos in their own right, George Fernandez on piano, Colin D’Cruz on bass and Lester Godinho on drums.
