Edgar Gianullo - O Assunto é Edgar (1964)

Hello, good evening! Great posts are scheduled for today, most of them instrumental albums, we had several albums with lyrics last week and it is now time to give another chance to instrumental music. The great Marcelo Munhoz, from the mighty Sambassonics is responsible for this great contribution, an album from an artist never released at Loronix that I was tracking down for months. Let's see this nice pick from the wonderful Marcelo Munhoz LP collection.

This is Edgar Gianullo - O Assunto e Edgar (1964), for Farroupilha, the small but very influent Brazilian record label from the 60's that always releases nice albums. O Assunto e Edgar is the first album by Edgar Gianullo, a Brazilian arranger and guitar player that we had the chance to see a couple of weeks ago performing with Mauricio Einhorn on a video. Tasso Bangel from Conjunto Farroupilha is behind the scenes as producer and personnel list is truly amazing. Tracks include:
