I have been managing some hardware changes at Loronix and Murphy's Law seems to be around. Perhaps my fault. If something is working fine, don't change it. Anyway, it was a necessary change, nothing that you will see the impact; it was a simple change according with my financial possibilities.This is one of several reasons to start the day reposting another true classic from the old times. People say that I'm a lucky guy and I'm starting to agree. I got this album for an unbelievable price, so cheap that I feel embarrassed to say here, which is something that makes me happy and I hope Loronixers also feel happy. Improvements are countless, from cover art scans, music and the availability of the new FLAC alternative, let's see.
This is Os Ipanemas - Os Ipanemas (1964), for Columbia, a unique and killer set of Bossa Jazz with Afro Influences, featuring the traditional bass and drums with the addition of Astor Silva trombone, Neco's guitar and Ruben Bassini percussion. Astor Silva is probably the leader of Os Ipanemas, which is a constellation of Brazilian musicians that recorded this first and only album for Columbia. Os Ipanemas were assembled 40 years later for another recordings and different formation, but never could reach what was done in this first 1964 release. Tracks include:

Parabéns Zecalouro!!!
Seu blog é um máximo!!!
É tudo que eu estava procurando!
Até mais!
I have no idea who Astor Silva is but he gets my vote for the Downbeat Jazz Poll on trombone for the year 1966. I can't think of a better album for this mercifully mild August day. A heartfelt Thanks. My glass (of lemonade) is raised to you.
This is a fantastic Lp. And also the first in the re-issue series of Mr.Bongo U.K.
Sensacional esse disco dos Ipanemas. Me chamou a atenção a música Nana com sua interpretação pra lá de afro-brasileira. Aliás, todo o disco tem essa característica. Astor Silva realmente faz a diferença e o realce a bateria de wilson das neves caiu muito bem nas canções. Gostei também dos vocais. Pode se dizer que Jangal é uma capoeira bossa nova com os vocais, mais uma vez, em evidência e Clouds é um sambinha bem suave, bonito, no violão, com Astor pontuando um solo de trombone - ou trumpete - muito legal. Kenya é um lamento maravilhoso com batucada e vocais afro de arrepiar os cabelos. Melodia muito boa. Congo também é maravilhosa. Que som!
Mais uma grande peça - rara, por sinal - apresentada aqui com maestria por Lôro em seu ambiente nostálgico que tanto nos pega de surpresa.
Mr. Wiggles,
You need to get a new IP address to skip this waiting time. It is the only manner, besides going Rapidshare Premium.

Great LP. the perfect mixture of cool jazz, samba, bossa and afro sounds. It sounds really cool, and direct!!!
os ipanemas was publised in cd by mr. bongo records

O fato de ser 'repost' não diminui em nada esse discaço. Absolutamente impressionante !! Tenho a versão em cedê do Mr. Bongo (também paguei muito barato, Zeca, nem acreditei) e ela está quase furada.
Abração
Great re-post! Legendary afro-bossa from Os Ipanemas, featuring brilliant musicians. There is another 64 album credited to Eumir Deodato/Os Catedáticos ("Samba Nova Concepção") that has a similar line-up and has Neco as arranger (it's crime that he was not credited as the main artist). A great companion piece for those who love Os Ipanemas debut.
Alguma chance de uma repostagem desse disco em FLAC ?
Olá,
É provável que sim. Estarei vendendo esse disco e seria muito bom ter uma cópia em FLAC antes que ele se vá.
É um clássico.
Abraços, zeca
