Acknowledgments from Mario Castro-Neves:
Thanks to my wife, ”Mara My Love”, for all the support, love, and inspiration she has given me during all the years we’ve been together.
Thanks to my loving cousins, Fernando & Gilda Gatti, and my childhood friends, Silvio & Lilian Nogueira, for their advice, support, love, and putting up with me when I stayed at their homes in “My Rio.”
Thanks to my wonderful friends Ithamara Koorax, Ana Zinger, Manuel Gusmão (another childhood friend), Cesar Machado (a new friend) whose great talent and enthusiasm inspired very lively and exciting recording sessions.
And, finally, thanks to my good friend, producer Arnaldo DeSouteiro, who has been my greatest fan for many years, for his dedication, professionalism and love of Brazilian music, and to whom I dedicate this album.

Acknowledgements from Arnaldo DeSouteiro:
Firstly, “2004 Thanks” to the legendary Brazilian music historian and radio DJ, Simon Khoury, for introducing me to Mario Castro-Neves’ artistry, back in 1973, through Castro-Neves’ “Brazilian Mood” LP. His superb orchestrations on that masterpiece album would be enough to place Mario Castro-Neves among the best arrangers in the music history, alongside Sebesky, Ogerman, Mancini, Legrand, Schifrin, Mandel, Gil Evans, Deodato and Gaya. It is a privilege and a great honor to work with him!
Mr. Khoury used to give airplay, at JB-AM radio station, to such songs as “Helena And I” and “The Whole Mess” (both from “Brazilian Mood”). I could never dream that, thirty years later, I would produce new versions of these gorgeous tunes.
Very special heartfelt thanks also to Shinji Fushiguro (big help!), Takashi Horiuchi, Kaz Sawatari, Shioji Mori and everyone at Rambling Records for believing in this project.
And, last but not least, “Thank you” Ithamara Koorax for giving me, as always, all your time and love.
