Waldir Azevedo e Seu Conjunto - Internacional (1962)

Eliana e Booker Pitman (1962)

Mocambo LP 40083

To complete Booker Pittman's career albums in this parallel reality, I have decided to re-post here also his Lp with Eliana Pittman from 1962 which I originally found on Loronix a long time ago.

Zeca's text about it you may find, as expected, on Órfãos do Loronix, but, if you try to find Booker Pittman's Sucesso from 1965, although you will find it in another reality, together with all his other albums, you will notice that it is the only one with the link not working anymore. I wanted to re-new it, but I could not open my back-up DVD as it got corrupted somehow.
If someone has downloaded it previously, I would appreciate if he would send it to me.

Francisco Moraes e Sua Orquestra - As Melhores do Ano (1964)

Chantecler CMG 2258

"What are you writing, Daddy?" starts the background cover text in form of a conversation written by Jair Thaumaturgo.

Of course, Jair, caught red handed while writing linear notes, answers the question made by his daughter and during further dialogue, explains all she and we might want to know about this recording and also writes down her remarks...

However cute it all might be, the recommended way to determine the content of this album by maestro Francisco Moraes is to get the Lp and listen to:

01. Lawrence Of Arabia (Maurice Jarre)
02. Sonhar Contigo (Adilson Ramos / Armelindo Leandro)
03. Blame It On The Bossa Nova (Cynthia Weil / Barry Mann)
04. Legata A Un Granello Di Sabbia (Fermo Dante Marchetti / Nico Fidenco)

Turma da Bossa - Sambas de Bossa Nova (1959)

Musidisc Hi-Fi 2023

About Turma da Bossa I know only that this is probably their only album and that there is another band with the same name who has released in 2000 a CD with a recording of their live performance at Tom's Bar.

As expected, the linear notes by Sebastião Fonseca are without any information about the Turma at all, explaining their music and the compositions performed with a prominent quantity of words instead.

So, at the moment there is only one path to take to find out more:
The path of simply listening to:

01. Chega de Saudade (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
02. Lamento (Djalma Ferreira / Luis Antônio)
03. Vai, Mas Vai Mesmo (Ataulfo Alves)
04. Não Vou Pra Brasília (Billy Blanco)
05. Mocinho Bonito (Billy Blanco)
06. É Luxo Só (Ary Barroso / Luis Peixoto)
07. Se Acaso Você Chegasse (Lupicínio Rodrigues / Felisberto Martins)

Sexteto Prestige - Musica e Festa (1958)

Prestige DLP 1001

This album was presented on Loronix for the first time, then much later re-posted on Parallel Realities and now it is posted once more, this time in form of a Pedro transfer.

To make a connection with the previously posted Sexteto Guanabara i will just point out a few facts:

Sexteto Prestige recorded under the name of Sexteto Prestige for Prestige from 1958 to 1960, this one posted tonight, being, if I am correct, the first album to be released by Prestige which was founded the same year.

After mysteriously disappearing into thin air without even disclosing their names, another mysterious sextet, the Sexteto Guanabara, started recording for Musiplay in 1962 and recorded the 3 Sorvete albums, the last being released in 1963.

The concept of both sextets is very similar, recording medleys with undisclosed musicians.

Like these:

1. Le Gondolier (Peter de Angelis / J. Broussole)
    Cuando Tu Me Quieras (Raul Shaw Moreno / Mário Barrios)
    Sonhando Contigo (Anísio Silva / Fausto Guimarães)
    My Prayer (Mi Oración) (Georges Boulanger)
              
2. Eu Quero Um Samba (Haroldo Barbosa / Janet de Almeida)
    Faceira (Ary Barroso)
    Sonho e Fantasia (João Leal Brito ''Britinho'')
    Sal e Pimenta (Nazareno de Brito / Newton Ramalho)            

3. A Saudade Mata A Gente (João de Barro / Antônio Almeida)
    Cabecinha No Ombro (Paulo Borges)
    A Grande Verdade (Luis Bittencourt / Marlene)
    Mocinho Bonito (Billy Blanco)
              
4. Interesseira (Bidú Reis / Murillo Latini)
    Apaixonada (Lourival Faissal)
    Por Causa de Você (Tom Jobim / Dolores Duran)
    Perfidia (Alberto Dominguez)

The second volume of the series has been already presented on the legendary Loronix, then years after that on Parallel Realities, where it still can be found, unfortunately with the DOWNLOAD YESTERDAY notice next to the text previously leading to the, now deleted, file.

The morale of the story: Be quick to grab this album while it is still available.

So do it now, or tomorrow you might be presented with the DOWNLOAD YESTERDAY advice showing that there is no possibility of enjoying these medleys any more:

Lagna Fieta e Sua Orquestra - Natal Dancante (1959)

RGE XRLP 5067

Another album by maestro Hector Lagna Fietta, at first sight offering music and gifts suitable for Christmas.

But a closer look raises doubts about the identity of the man displayed on the front cover.

Is he really Santa Claus?

I strongly doubt it and in fact I suspect that an actor wearing a Santa Claus outfit is trying to deceive us all.

Just look closely at the presents in his bag. What the packages conceal, I can only assume, but another content leads to the unmistakeable impression that it is meant mainly for a naughty  boy.

Also the usually to be expected Holiday compositions consist of just a few appropriate ones, including Jingle Bells. What the other compositions are all about one can only guess:

01. Jingle Bells (Tradicional)
02. Quem É (Osmar Navarro / Oldemar Magalhães)
03. Lobo Bobo (Carlos Lyra / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
04. Una Mujer (Paul Misraki / Carlos Olivari / Sixto Pondal Ríos)
05. Maria Boa (Assis Valente)
06. Valentina, My Valentina (Paul Vance / Lee Pockriss)

This and lots of other information about Clemar's life, career and music as well all about the musicians of his band, you may find inside the linear notes printed on the back cover of this 1962 re-edition.

The jovem styled Vespa decorated cover includes also the word "broto" while the track list includes these compositions:

Philips P 630.449 L

After posting 9 Carnaval albums with his participations, it is time to finally present on Parallel Realities also a career album by the famous Jackson de Pandeiro.

Melodia... e A Personalidade from '61 containing:

01. Aquilo Bom (Jackson do Pandeiro / José Batista)
02. Dá Eu Pra Ela (Venâncio / Corumba)

11. Criando Cobra (Bezerra da Silva / Big Ben / Odelandes Rodrigues)
12. Lição de Tabuada (Rosil Cavalcanti)

If I correctly understood the linear notes by Fernando Lôbo, the female vocal is by Jackson's wife Almira.

ALMIRA DO PANDEIRO

Créditos: Pedro & 300discos

ALMIRA CASTILHO by Edson Mendes:
Almira Castilho
was a singer, songwriter and Brazilian dancer. She was Jackson's partner (and also his wife) in compositions and performances on the radio, TV and films.
She began her artistic career in 1954, joining the chorus in the recording of "Sebastiana" by Jackson do Pandeiro.
During her career she wrote more than 30 songs. With Jackson, she wrote hits as "1 x 1", "A mulher de Aníbal" and "Forró em Limoeiro", but her biggest success was "Chiclete com banana" written with singer and composer Gordurinha. This song was recorded by many artists as Odete Amaral, Jackson do Pandeiro, Gilberto Gil, Gordurinha, Carmélia Alves and Zé Ramalho, among others.

Radames Gnattali Em Ritmo de Samba (1958)

Continental LPP 3010

One of the most famous figures in Brazilian music, composer, arranger and piano player Radamés Gnattali was featured in this as well as in the previous parallel reality, but as far as I can remember not with a complete, his only, career album, the nearest to that being the two weeks ago presented Retratos, a joint venture with Jacob do Bandolim.

Now here it is finally: Em Ritmo de Samba from 1958.

With:

01. Atire A Primeira Pedra (Ataulfo Alves / Mário Lago)
02. Fim de Semana Em Paquetá (João de Barro / Alberto Ribeiro)
03. Copacabana (João de Barro / Alberto Ribeiro)
04. Agora É Cinza (Alcebíades Barcelos "Bide" / Armando "Marçal")
05. Já É Demais o Meu Sofrer (Alcebíades Barcelos "Bide" / Armando "Marçal")
06. Vem Meu Amor (Norival Reis / Adelino Moreira)
07. Duas Contas (Garoto)
08. O Morro Canta Assim (Norival Reis / José Batista)
09. Foi A Noite (Tom Jobim / Newton Mendonça)
10. Nova Ilusão (José Menezes / Luis Bittencourt)
11. Quem Foi Que Prometeu (José Menezes / Jorge Murad)
12. Esquina da Saudade (Radamés Gnattali / Chiquinho do Acordeom)

Almos everything you wanted to know about Radamés Gnattali but were afraid to ask, you may read on the back cover text.

Here is just one detail from his personal life: While searching for more songs by Nelly Martins I learned that she was married to Radamés Gnattali and that they have recorded an album together which I did not have an opportunity to listen to but in the textual description I read that, instead of singing, Nelly is also playing piano so we have 4 hands on one piano, but not Nelly's sensual vocal, which is from my point of view, as you might have guessed, not a good idea. Anyway, a link to one of Nelly's compactos found in another reality is still working and you still can hear her voice if you have not already done so. Just click HERE.

To get Radamés' solo album click on the usual, not always understandable text.

All Giffer e Seu Conjunto de Dancas - Parada em Copacabana(1959)

Chantecler CMG 2042

Presenting for the first time All Giffer organist (or is he maybe the guitar player?) and leader of a dance music quintet.

As you have already guessed, about All Giffer I can tell you even less than the back cover text by Almeida does, as it is partially damaged and not all is legible.

Anyway, the album sounds very interesting and was (I suppose) very avant garde for 1959, + decorated with occasional background meows by a female choir.

Is All Giffer All Giffer or somebody else recording for Chantecler under the false name of All Giffer?

No idea, but it seems that this is All's only recording.

Enjoy it, now that you have an opportunity to do so:

01. O Apito no Samba (Luiz Bandeira / Luis Antônio)

Chiquinho do Acordeom - Valsas, Polcas E Outra Coisas (1961)

Odeon MOFB 3251

Another until now missing album from Chiquinho's discography: Valsas, Polcas e Outras Coisas from '61 brought to us as courtesy of Pedro & 300discos.

The reform of Portuguese spelling in Brazil has multiplied the list of musicians in Brazil at least by two. A good example is Chiquinho do Acordeom, who became also another (additional) musician: Chiquinho do Acordeon (or was it vice-versa?).
Could it be that the secret meaning of two Chiquinhos on the front cover of this Lp is: Chiquinho do Acordeom and Chiquinho do Acordeon united on and for Odeon?

Note that the "do Acordeom/n is nowhere explicitly printed on the covers. It is just Chiquinho.

01. Maria Bonita (Agustín Lara)
02. São Paulo Quatrocentão (Garoto / Chiquinho do Acordeom / Avaré)

Francisco Moraes e Sua Orquestra - Sucessos de Adelino Moreira (1961)

RCA Victor BBL 1153

Francisco Moraes has been presented for the first time on Parallel Realities a short time ago with his first career album.

At that time I knew that he was a maestro and arranger but thought that his main instrument was the piston (as the front cover is covered with a giant piston) and that he is also playing piano, as the back cover has a small photograph of him next to his piano.

Now here he is again with a tribute to composer Adelino Moreira as orchestra leader, arranger and piano player.

To the confusion are adding also two texts on the back cover, the first (and longer one) written by Ramalho Neto and another (shorter) signed with Julio Nagib.

The tracks are all composed by Adelino Moreira:

01. A Volta do Boêmio (Adelino Moreira)
02. Maria Helena (Adelino Moreira)
03. Deusa do Asfalto (Adelino Moreira)

Durval Ribeiro e Seu Conjunto - Daqui e Dali (1959)

Copacabana CLP 11127

Yes, it's true: It is Odysséa!

My assumption, when presenting her for the first time on  Aloysio e Seus Teclados - Bon Voyage (1960) less than half a year ago, was that the two compositions she sang were her complete recorded opus, fortunately got proven wrong!

This only (?) album, by, to me previously unknown, Durival Ribeiro, recorded a year earlier than Bon Voyage is subtitled Apresentando a cantora Odysséa, a fact from which I am intelligently deducting that this might be her first record and the track list enables me to make another intelligent deduction:

She is singing on four tracks of:

01. Daqui e Dali (Durval Ribeiro) 
02. Sweetly (Docemente) (Herve Cordovil) com Odysséa
03. Meu Tema (Hervé Cordovil)
04. Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar (A. C. Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes) com Odysséa
05. Garoto Travesso (Bisoca)
06. Você (Mario Albanese / Heitor Carillo)
07. Toselli no Samba (Toselli)
08. Hymne À L'Amour (Edith Piaf / Marguerite Monnot) com Odysséa
