Tonight, sax and clarinet player Luiz Americano has his premiere on Parallel Realities with his second album (out of altogether two + countless 78 rpms) recorded back in 1958.
Frankly speaking, I did not know anything about him and his career, but the long and information-filled text printed on the back cover, written by Elmo Barros, put an end to my ignorance.
I suggest you also read it while enjoying these masterfully played tracks:

02. Um Chorinho Em Serenata (Paulo Patrício)
03. Melancolia (Henriqueta Ribeiro)
