I took a recommendation of a great Loronix friend some months ago to track down this LP, Carlos Penha - Bom Balanco em Bossa Nova (1973). My first researches confirmed that Carlos Penha released only this record, which is hunted by vinyl fans worldwide, and then dissapeared. I had no hope to find it, putting an end to the quest and filing Carlos Penha under "impossible to find".Yesterday, this same friend sent an email remembering Carlos Penha again and this time was different. I'm so happy to make it available that could not wait longer to research about Carlos Penha and this LP, so I will let with you friends to place comments with additional info about this nice LP. Tracks include:
01 - Bombalanço (Ed Severo)
02 - Cobrança (Pery Pereira)
03 - Yemanjá (Tercio Guimarães / Celina Ferreira)
04 - Fim de Estrada (Pery Pereira)
05 - Terra Santa (Alberto Araújo / Marcos Versiani)
06 - É Tarde (Ugo Marotta / Vica Giffoni)
07 - Quem Foi (Tradicional)
08 - Zé Povo (Alberto Araújo / Marcos Versiani)
09 - Confissão (Alex)
10 - Vai Solidão (Tonio Silva / Nilton Ferreira)
11 - Ausência de Paz (Tonio Silva)
12 - Prelúdio Em Amor Maior (Antônio Carlos / Badeco)

Oh Zeca,
ReplyDeleteI think I am still sleeping or dreaming-know I understand who is the friend --)) I hope the "green bird" and the dreamer are right with this album.

True, this is a real gem. I'm lucky enough to have one copy - a birthday present from my girlfriend - and it is a pity no one knows about Carlos Penha. Even on the cover, we can only see his hands. Is he the invisible man ? ;-)

Really great. Bossanova with groovy flavour. This record is a very surprise to me, because I couldn't imagine this sound in 1973.
