O’s Notes: Paulista Chico Pinheiro is a guitarist, vocalist, composer and bandleader now residing in New York. He assembles a quintet with Chris Potter (sax), Tiago Costa (p), Bruno Migotto (b) and Edu Ribeiro (d) for City of Dreams. Pinheiro and Potter take the lead on radio friendly “Long Story Short” followed by the mellow “Estrada Real” with Pinheiro scatting. Chico’s nylon strings are appropriate for the Spanish-infused “Gesture” with nice work on the keys by Costa. They end up a little spacey on “Up In The Air” capping a fine, mild, Latin-Fusion set!
