A friend of us said that the missing piece at Loronix is Toquinho. No more, there are several other missing pieces and the fun of this business is to keep some missing slots to be completed.zecalouro proudly presents a very early Toquinho, just on his second career LP, Toquinho – Toquinho (1970). What a nice surprise! Toquinho is strongly associated with Vinicius de Moraes on a partnership that started in 1970 and last for more than a decade. What amazes me most in this album is that Toquinho is alone here and probably doing whatever he wants on the set.
We can listen Toquinho vocals on 3 songs, Agua Negra de Lagoa, Zana e Dobrando a Esquina, Jorge Ben duets with Toquinho on the legendary song Que Maravilha and Carolina, Carol Bela. Paulinho Nogueira is also here on Bachianinha #1 playing guitar with Toquinho.
Toquinho guitar playing is powerful and can be heard out loud throughout the entire LP.
i love Carolina, Carol Bela! looking forward to hearing the rest of the album it comes from...
ReplyDeleteI have footage of Toquinho and Vinicius in the '70's and him with Alrio Diaz doing duets - as well as he and Paulinho Nogueira playing together. http://home.earthlink.net/~williamdee
ReplyDeleteZeca, do you own this LP? I would LOVE to see a repost in flac like you've done with some other LPS.
ReplyDeleteMany thabks for your legendary efforts. With your help, Brazilian music will take over the world!
Isn't it Jorge Ben singing also on "Zana"? If it isn't him all the way, it is definitely him at the end of the song. I'd love some more information on this record.
ReplyDeleteZeca, thank you for this dreamy site, this is my main daily meal of mental nourishment ;)
