I believe I made the right choice postponing my sleep time for a few hours. I'm feeling much better right now, especially remembering this album, which is one of the first made available at Loronix and a very important Brazilian instrumental music album featuring Milton Banana, the creator of Bossa Nova drumming style, backed by another legend of the movement, Oscar Castro Neves and Conjunto. This is a required update that you cannot miss. Let's see.
This is Milton Banana e Conjunto de Oscar Castro Neves - O Ritmo e O Som da Bossa Nova (1963), for Audio Fidelity, now available with the original first AF 1984 edition with Milton Banana with the name that made his fame instead of Miltinho from the US release. Conjunto de Oscar Castro Neves is a quartet, but other musicians were in this session and they did not received credits by Audio Fidelity. This is one of those self-explanatory albums.
