Celeste - Cinco e Triste da Manha (1978)

Let's start reading a statement of Joao Gilberto about the singer Celeste, he said: "É uma das mais belas vozes que já escutei" (It is one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard). Joao Gilberto would not say something like this for nothing.

This is Celeste - Cinco e Triste da Manha (1978), the debut LP of a singer acclaimed by musicians and reviews that never had a public acceptance accordingly. Cinco e Triste da Manha is arranged by J.T. Meirelles and Chiquinho de Moraes. For reasons that I could not check, Celeste is almost forgotten in Brazil, but not for my friends at Loronix, at least from now on. Tracks include:

01 - Serrado (Djavan)
02 - Pó (Fafy / Sarah Benchimol)
03 - Cinco e Triste da Manhã (Silvio Silva / Fernando César)
04 - Dupla Traição (Djavan)
05 - Sonhos (Peninha)
06 - Ronda Tristeza (Tranka)
07 - Amor a Três (Roberto Correia / Jon Lemos / Eros)
08 - Foi Assim (Paulo André / Ruy Barata)
09 - Como Posso Saber (Djavan)
10 - Vergonha É Não Lutar (Kiko)
11 - Sinal de Solidão (Tranka / Jenny)
12 - Teia de Aranha (Elizabeth)
