Lord Astor e Seus Dixiedrools - Brasil em Ritmo de Charlston (1959)

Odeon MOFB 3113

I have no idea when or why Astor Silva has received the title of Lord from the British Queen, but there it is.

I have never before heard of his backing group called Dixiedrools but here they ar performing on this album from 1959 devoted to Charleston.

Neither could I imagine how Ary Barroso's Risque could be performed as a Charleston, but there it is.

Curious?

Listen to these tracks and you'll be pleasantly surprised:
