Conjunto Farroupilha - Os Farroupilhas em HI-FI (1960)

Everybody is saying the Conjunto Farroupilha EP released two weeks ago was a great find. I agree. The music inside that little record is great with very well done instrumental and vocal arrangements. Yesterday, a non-identified collaborator sent through the Mail Big File transaction this album, exactly the one were those EP tracks were taken. Thanks a million, feel free to identify yourself to us, this album is great as the EP. Let's see.

This is Conjunto Farroupilha - Os Farroupilhas em HI-FI (1960), for Columbia, a nice blend of traditional music from Rio Grande do Sul with really nice vocal and instrumental arrangements.
