Simonetti & Orquestra RGE - Samba 707 (1960)

Hello, Good Evening! I could hear today Forma e Elenco, which is a Bossa Nova radio show produced and presented by a Loronixer, Leo RJ. Today's show was about the legendary Sinatra-Farney Fan Club and Leo RJ urge his audience to reach Loronix to see the Sinatra-Farney Fan Club green wallet made available on our last Dick Farney post. Very nice show and I will manage with Leo how to make it available to Loronixers as a Podcast or so. Let's make a great and fast start today with one of the artists that I like most.

This is Maestro Simonetti & Orquestra RGE - Samba 707 (1960), for RGE. Such like the last and successful Brasil a Jato, which was a tribute to Varig airlines and the acquisition of their first Caravelle airplanes, Samba 707 has also Varig affairs and celebrates the acquisition of the first Boeing 707 airplanes. This record has more than 40 years and airplanes design did not change much since then. I'm busy today and this is a self-explanatory release. Tracks include:

01 - Se Acaso Você Chegasse (Lupicínio Rodrigues / Felisberto Martins)
02 - Implorar (Germano Augusto / Kid Pepe / Gaspar)
03 - Agora É Cinza (Alcebíades Barcelos "Bide" / Armando "Marçal")
04 - General da Banda (Sátiro de Melo / José Alcides / Tancredo Silva)
05 - Tem Pena de Mim (Hervé Cordovil)
06 - Morena Boca de Ouro (Ary Barroso)
07 - Império do Samba (Zé da Zilda / Zilda do Zé)
08 - A Lapa (Benedito Lacerda / Herivelto Martins)
09 - Foi Ela (Ary Barroso)
10 - Boeing (Claude)
11 - Helena Helena (Antônio Almeida / Constantino Silva "Secundino")
12 - Botões de Laranjeira (Pedro Caetano)
