Renowned as a carioca songwriter, vocalist, and pianist, Ivan Lins recorded several albums as well as writing Brazilian standards. Born in 1945, Lins came to fame in Brazil in 1970 when Elis Regina recorded his song "Magdalena" for a hit. Lins' most famous composition, "Love Dance" ("Lembrança"), has been recorded by dozens of jazz artists, including Kenny Burrell, Sarah Vaughan, Betty Carter, Nancy Wilson, Mark Murphy, George Benson and James Blood Ulmer. Each track on "Modo Livre" with songs written by Ivan Lins, Caetano Veloso, Paulo César Pinheiro o.a. Everything on this CD is on another level, from several musicians like Arthur Verocai, Wagner Tiso, Luiz Carlos, Robertinho, Gilberto, Chiquinho Batera, Laércio de Freitas, Otávio Bonfá, Jorginho, the backing vocals, to the great harmonica solo. This is Brazilian perfection.
