Varios Artistas - Mais Explosivo! (1963)

Hello, good evening! I found this album on an old vinyl shop in Rio de Janeiro for less than a Dollar. I got really excited by the title - Mais Explosivo! (More Explosive!) - and the cover artwork with the girl inside the bikini, the TNT gallon and the beautiful and colorful background. I thought immediately I had high-octane music inside and decided to buy without checking performers and repertoire.

Anyway, the music inside is just the opposite, a collection of romantic songs performed by singers from the "old school" of Brazilian music, such as: Cauby Peixoto, Angela Maria, Nelson Goncalves, Nubya Lafayette and many others. I decided to share it with Loronixers, it has nice tracks, some Loronix friends love this kind of music and the cover is really worth, but don't let the cover cheats you as I was. This is a warning.

This is Mais Explosivo! (1963), for RCA Victor, a compilation of romantic tunes, featuring romantic singers, some of them never release by a career album at Loronix, in fact, most of this artists never had a career album released here. I'm listing bellow performers listing and tracks. Tracks include:
