There are several nice Brazilian artists from the Bossa Nova age that is almost impossible to zecalouro to track and make available for Loronixers. Luiz Henrique is one of those, a Brazilian singer that had a great success in the 60's and made a consistent international career.Luiz Henrique could not get a deserved recognition in Brazil and for zecalouro's surprise he died in 1985 in a car accident. zecalouro proudly presents Luiz Henrique - A Bossa Moderna de Luiz Henrique (1964), his debut LP. Tracks include:
01 - Vou Andar Por Aí (Newton Chaves)
02 - Sambou Sambou (João Mello / João Donato)
03 - Tóc-tóc (Luis Henrique)
04 - Minha Terra (Luis Henrique) -- Itaguaçú (O. Melo Filho)
05 - Samba Skindim (Luis Henrique)
06 - Se Amor É Isso (Luis Henrique)
07 - Balanço do Mar (Zil Rosendo)
08 - Paz de Amor (Luis Henrique)
09 - Da Cor do Pecado (Bororó)
10 - Vagamente (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
11 - Amor de Nós Dois (Luis Henrique)
12 - Garota da Rua da Praia (Luis Henrique)
For me this is one of the best Bossa Nova records ever made. It belongs to my alltime Top Ten.
ReplyDeleteLuiz Henrique then went to US to record more great albums like "Barra Limpa" and "Listen to me". He recorded the great LP "Popcorn" with Walter Wanderley
too.
He also recorded the album "finding a new friend" with oscar brown jr, arranjed by sivuca and luiz henrique himself.
ReplyDeleteHe died in a car accident in the island of Florianópolis (where he was from) in the 80's.
If you have more of his albuns to upload i would be very greatful.
Thanks and congratulations for your amazing job in this blog.
