Mágico (album) - Misplaced Pages

Mágico (Portuguese: "Magic") is an album by bassist Charlie Haden, recorded in June 1979 and released on ECM in January the following year. The trio features saxophonist Jan Garbarek and guitarist Egberto Gismonti.

Reception

The Globe and Mail noted that "there are the qualities of a folk music in the fundamental nature of Haden's work and the richness of Garbarek's saxes."

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "The trio performs group originals and an obscurity during the picturesque and continually interesting release; this combination works well."
