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)
07. White Christmas (Irving Berlin)
08. O Apito no Samba (Luiz Bandeira / Luis Antônio)
09. Have Lips Will Kiss In The Tunnel Of Love (Patty Fisher / Bob Roberts)
10. Conversa (Jair Amorim / Evaldo Gouveia)
11. Margarida (Lupicínio Rodrigues)
12. Castigo (Dolores Duran)
13. Balada Triste (Dalton Vogeler / Esdras Pereira da Silva)
14. Mais Brilho nas Estrelas (Aloísio Figueiredo / Nelson Figueiredo)

Musicolor/Continental MLP 9034

Back in 1960 at the time of the release of the first edition of this album by Todoamérica, Clemar de Oliveira was the youngest band leader of them all...
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:

01. To The Ends Of The Earth (Joe Sherman / Noel Sherman)

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.

If you know how, dance to:

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)

Victor Pilla Orquestra - Brazilian New Sound (1969)

The only album by the Victor Pilla Orquestra, about which I can tell you as much or even less than you can tell me, as there is a possibility that, maybe, you have at least heard about them, or know something, while I have never heard about them nor do I know anything except for what might be deducted from the track list and front cover (which is less revealing than the back cover, but the back cover, although more revealing than the front cover gives no more facts or information than the unrevealing front cover does).

The list of flautist and composer Altamiro Carrilho's career albums, participations, 78 rpms etc is quite huge indeed.

Tito Romero e Sua Orquestra - Choros Maravilhosos (1959)

Polydor LPNG 4047

The fourth album by João Leal Brito "Britinho" recorded under the name of Tito Romero is presented today on Parallel Realities.

A previous quick checking my collection showed that there is just one more missing Lp to complete Britinho's Tito Romero discography, while the Al Brito and Franca Villa collections (consisting, as far as I know, of only 1 album each) are completed...

So is the Pierre Kolmann 10 albums discography.

On the other hand, if my listing is correct, 6 more albums which João Leal Brito "Britinho" has recorded as João Leal Brito "Britinho" or just "Britinho" have so far not appeared anywhere on the net.

But with the secrecy surrounded piano player, all kind of surprises are possible and therefore to be expected. Like another false name of which nobody was aware of...

Any pretext to post or re-post anything by Marisa Gata Mansa is, from my point of view, a good pretext:
Now we have finally a Pedro transfer from a cleaner disc than the previous one posted here, so I am sure all hard-core Marisa, Carminha, Ernâni, and, of course, composer Newton Mendonça's fans have a reason to open a bottle of champagne again.

Celinho do Pistom - O Rapaz do Piston (1966-67)

Equipe EQ 812

The only (?) career album by trumpet player Celinho do Pistom about whom I know only what I could read on the back cover text, written by our new friend Toni Vestane, recently criticized by Andreas because of engaging himself more in producing other artists' music than making a few more records of his own.

The list of musicians shows, among others, also bass player Luis Marinho:

José Célio Gonçalves Coelho "Celinho do Pistom": Pistom
Carlosalberto Luttigardo de Castro "Carlinos": Órgão
Durval Dos Reis "Reizinho": Bateria
Luis Marinho: Baixo
Irio Nepomuceno de Paula: Guitarra
Tancredo Marcelino de Olivieira "Tranca": Saxofone (fx. 4)

As the track list shows, among other compositions, also Lennon / McCartney's A Hard Day's Night :

01. Io Che Non Vivo (Senza Te) (Vito Pallavicini / Pino Donaggio)
02. And I Love Her (John Lennon / Paul McCartney)
03. Tenderly (Walter Gross / Jack Lawrence)

THE MUSICIANS by Bossanov:
Great Tranca said in his letter to me year ago:

"the name of the organist in "O Rapaz do Piston" was Carlosalberto Luttigardo de Castro and he lived at Rio de Janeiro until 1970 when he went to Mexico with the (trombonist) Raul de Souza band. Unfortunately, he died at Mexico in the 70's"

As far as I know, Celinho do Pistom is José Célio Gonçalves Coelho.
Reizinho is Durval Dos Reis
Irio is Írio Nepomuceno de Paula
And Tranca is Tancredo Marcelino de Olivieira.

REVIEW by Brazilliance:
Apart from the excellent art work, this album fortunately also features also some very nice renditions of sixties classics.

According to the catalogue numbering of Equipe, this album was presumably released in 1966 or 1967. Particularly, as it features two songs that were heavily covered at that time:

Io Che Non Vivo (Senza Te), though introduced already in early 1965 at the San Remo Festival by Pino Donaggio, became internationally known by Dusty Springfield’s famous recording titled You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me from early 1966 which inspired more recordings that year, including from Cher, Brenda Lee and Carla Thomas.

Nessuno Mi Può Giudicare introduced in 1966 by Caterina Caselli.

Samba Exportacao - Music for Tourist (1963)

Pawal P-20.022

Products made especially for tourists are generally questionable, but looks like that in Brazil at the time it was impossible to find second class music.
So, even if the musicians are not credited and the title clearly states that the music is for tourist(s) we have in front of us a recording that can be enjoyed from the first rhythm to the last rhythm.
A nice text written by Laércio Vieira can be found and read on the back cover but don't search for any information about who is playing as there is none.

Instead, relax and let the mysterious musicians entertain you through these compositions:

01. Ritmo
02. O Barquinho (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
03. Se Quiser Pode Ir (José Batista / João da Silva / Arthur Montenegro)
04. Maria Conga (Orlandivo / Roberto Jorge)
05. Quem Quiser Encontrar O Amor (Carlos Lyra / Geraldo Vandré)
06. Este Samba Tem Parada (Monsueto)
07. Céu E Mar (Johnny Alf)
08. Porquoi (Caco Velho / Jadir de Castro)
09. Mensagem (Silvio César)
10. Canoinha (Leide Branco / Alberto Paz)
11. Pergunte ao João (Helena Silvia / Milton Costa)

The first album to be posted out of the freshly arrived package sent by Pedro & 300discos is, as you would have guessed if you had an insight of the complete package content, Sylvio Vianna's para dançar masterpiece from 1958.

Roberto Rutz - Licao de Ritmo (N/D)

Damic LPM 5044

If I would say that I know anything about Roberto Rutz, then I am sure that I would be immediately identified as a liar.
But I can safely add to the confusion by mentioning the fact that Memoria Musical lists under Roberto Rutz only one album with 12 tracks, also called Órgão e Ritmo (Damic LPM 5042).
The similarity is that both albums have no known release date. On the other hand the track lists are completely different.

For example, these compositions are not featured on the LPM 5042:

1. Pergunte Ao João (Swing / Helena Silva)
    Cadé o Pandeiro (Roberto Martins / Wilfrido Silva) 
    Se Quiser Pode Ir (José Batista / João da Silva / Arthur Montenegro)
Com Luiz Bandeira e Côro

4. Pourquoi? (Essa Nêga sem Sandália) (Caco Velho / Jadir de Castro)
    Deixa Amanhecer (Jamelão Carrapinho / Rossini)
    Tamborim (Carlos Barroso / Humberto Teixeira)

3. Menino Desce Daí (Paulinho Nogueira)
