Joe Chambers - Samba De Maracatu

Facts The great drummer Joe Chambers was a stalwart presence on many of the most progressive Blue Note albums of the mid-1960s. But it wasn't until 1998 that Chambers made his own Blue Note debut as a leader with his album Mirrors. Now the venerated drummer/percussionist/vibraphonist/composer returns with Samba de Maracatu, a trio album featuring pianist Brad Merritt and bassist Steve Haines on a sterling set of original compositions, standards, and pieces by Shorter, Hutcherson, and Horace Silver.
