Ana Lucia - Caminhos (1970)

A couple of weeks ago, Quimsy called my attention to this record and I could easily associate why zecalouro thought Ana Lucia was the mysterious singer at an early challenge released at Loronix, made available again at post closing. Does she look very like the mysterious singer? I still think Ana Lucia is the mysterious singer on that challenge, but I accept she is Julie Joy. Actually, everybody agrees the mysterious singer is Julie Joy. Forgetting the challenge, let's talk about this album (but I'm still in doubt about it).

This is Ana Lucia - Caminhos (1970), for Ebrau. It is important to do not take this Ana Lucia as another singer with the same name, being released months ago at Loronix, I made this mistake several times. If you take both singers for a hearing you will confirm they are pretty different from each other. I think this Ana Lucia is better. Little is known about her and any further info is really appreciated. Tracks include:
