Sarah Vaughan - Exclusivamente Brasil (1980) (5) comments

Monday, February 23, 2009 by

Hello, good evening! This is an unscheduled post. Sarah Vaughan was recently released a couple of days ago and I was waiting for a few weeks before taking this one in consideration. However, every road leads to Sarah Vaughan today. My mother came here today and showed great curiosity to hear the last, O Som Brasileiro de Sarah Vaughan. Everybody knows my mother is a great fan of Brazilian divas of the last century, but such like me; she has a very limited knowledge of international singers. I decided to take O Som de Sarah Vaughan for a spin and she got really amazed, deciding to stay additional hours until this one gets finished.

It was one of those perfect days. My mother took her way home hearing this album, naturally, my best choice for tonight. Let's see.

This is Sarah Vaughan - Exclusivamente Brasil (1980), for Philips, featuring the guitar of Helio Delmiro, a gifted musician that I never had the chance to make before at Loronix. Helio Delmiro has a really special participation here, which includes his picture at the front cover and a whole track, 04 - Vivo Sonhando (Dreamer) (Antonio Carlos Jobim). Personnel listing was credited by Philips and features Aloysio de Oliveira as producer with arrangements by Maestro Edson Frederico. Tracks include:

Great post!

A beautiful release by Helio Delmiro as Sassy's sideman, altough he told me that the original project was a double duet (the other one with Joe Pass and Ella Fitzgerald), and its format was aborted in this production...
It would be greatest as a duo album, but it sounds very very fine.

many thanks! (my LP is too much scratched)

Caro Zéca!

No intuito de colaborar com teu magnífico trabalho, aponto que a canção "Pra Dizer Adeus" não foi escrita por Vinicius de Moraes como está na contracapa do LP e sim por Torquato Netto.
