Elis Regina - Viva a Brotolandia (1961)

Elis Regina - Viva a Brotolandia (1961) is Elis Regina debut LP, recorded with an early Elis with only 16 years old. We need to check, but I heard before that Elis did not consider this LP as "valid", since she was very young and immature as a singer.

Several Loronixers were requesting this post. Viva a Brotolandia has the late 50's flavor with Severino Filho Orquestra. Let's see how Elis gets along with a recording session at the age of sixteen. Tracks include:

01 - Dá Sorte (Eleu Salvador)
02 - Sonhando (Dream) (B. Vorzon / Ellis / Vrs. Juvenal Fernandes)
03 - Murmúrio (Luis Antônio / Djalma Ferreira)
04 - Tu Serás (Ângela Martignoni / Othon Russo)
05 - Samba Feito Para Mim (Paulo Tito)
06 - Fala-me de Amor (Take Me In Your Arms) (Markus / Rotter / Vrs. Max Gold)
07 - Baby Face (Davis / Akst / Vrs. Fred Jorge)
08 - Dor de Cotovelo (João Roberto Kelly)
09 - Garoto Último Tipo (Puppy Love) (Paul Anka / Vrs. Fred Jorge)
10 - As Coisas Que Eu Gosto (My Favorite) (Rodgers / O. Hammerstein II / Vrs. Fernando César)
11 - Mesmo de Mentira (Carlos Imperial)
12 - Amor Amor (Love Love) (B. Caesar / Vrs. Carlos Imperial)
