Tamba Trio - Brasil Saluda Mexico (1966)

This is an unusual Tamba Trio LP never released in CD. Brasil Saluda Mexico, 1966, has Rubens Ohana on drums, which replaced Helcio Milito in 1964.

Brazilian Varig airlines logo is on cover again, Tamba Trio should have flew for free with this marketing. Once again, the information available is uncertain. Probably recorded in Mexico, since the songs - Bossa Nova Standards - are translated to Spanish. Tracks include:

01 - La chica de Ipanema
02 - Corcovado
03 - Solo Bailo Samba
04 - Consolacion
05 - Berimbau
06 - Desafinado
07 - Amor en Paz
08 - Samba de Mi Terra
09 - El Cerro
10 - Agua de Beber

Yes, this LP has probably been recorded in Mexico.

Luis Eça has lived there for quite a long time.

Great to hear early Ohana work with Luis Eça and Bebeto.

Below is updated track list, with addition of track missing from original post and the portuguese titles to aid those searching by title or composer/lyricist. Bossa Nova Online has the cover art for what might have been a later Phillips release of this recording perhaps titled "Amor em Paz" at: http://tinyurl.com/3x8gox
