Andre Penazzi - Orgao Samba Percussao Vol. 2 (1963)

Hello, Good Evening! Let's start addressing a request from friends who shout for Audio Fidelity albums and for Andre Penazzi LPs. I'm addressing both with Andre Penazzi recording for Audio Fidelity, a label that has a value proposition and really excels in terms of recording quality. First, I have to admit that syringe is very disturbing and I could only understand that it is a graphic representation of something Audio Fidelity calls as "Doctored for Super-Sound" a couple of weeks ago. Let's see.

This is Andre Penazzi - Orgao Samba Percussao Vol. 2 (1963), for Audio Fidelity. In fact, this vinyl has a very good output. It is also funny to read the back cover, with a lot of technical information on recording engineering wrote by Sidney Frey, Audio Fidelity president and only a tiny box describing the main performer, Andre Penazzi. Anyway, I recommend this one, so far the best album I heard by the Brazilian organist Andre Penazzi. Tracks include:

01 - O Apito no Samba (Luis Bandeira / Luis Antônio)
02 - Zelão (Sergio Ricardo)
03 - A Tua Vida É Um Segredo (Lamartine Babo)
04 - Samba Em Prelúdio (Baden Powell / Vinicius de Moraes)
05 - Se Acaso Você Chegasse (Lupicínio Rodrigues / Felisberto Martins)
06 - Tamanco no Samba (Orlann Divo / Hélton Menezes)
07 - Eu Não Tenho Onde Morar (Dorival Caymmi)
08 - Agora É Cinza (Alcebíades Barcelos "Bide" / Armando "Marçal")
09 - Menino Desce Daí (Paulinho Nogueira)
10 - Tem Bobo Pra Tudo (João Correia da Silva / Manoel Brigadeiro)
11 - Implorar (Kid Pepe / Germano Augusto / Gaspar)
12 - Na Cadência do Samba (Ataulfo Alves / Paulo Gesta)
