Leny Andrade - A Arte Maior de Leny Andrade (1964)

I will not make you feel bored this time several information about this LP. Just a few things are enough to your understanding that we have here something unique. Leny Andrade - A Arte Maior de Leny Andrade (1964) for Polydor, is a live set, at Bacarrat nightclub (as far as I could search). The recording quality is awesome considering the resources available in the 60’s. Leny speaks to the audience on what seems to be a tiny place by the number of hands clapping.

The set is full of Bossa Nova standards with arrangements and piano of Tenorio Jr., Milton Banana on drums and Zezinho on bass. Breathtaking. A Arte Maior also landmarks the first recording of Influencia do Jazz (Carlos Lyra). I think this is enought to capture your attention, an outstanding trio and a great diva. Tracks include:

01 - Samba do Avião (Tom Jobim)
02 - A Morte de Um Deus de Sal (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
03 - Baiãozinho (Eumir Deodato)
04 - Amor de Nada (Paulo Sergio Valle / Marcos Valle)
05 - Embalo (Tenório Júnior)
06 - Vai de Vez (Roberto Menescal / Luis Fernando Freire)
07 - O Mar e o Amor (Odilon Olyntho / Jorge Omar)
08 - Vivo Sonhando (Tom Jobim)
09 - Consolação (Vinicius de Moraes / Baden Powell)
10 - Moça Flor (Durval Ferreira / Luis Fernando Freire)
11 - There Will Never Be Another You (M. Gordon / H. Warren)
12 - Influência do Jazz (Carlos Lyra)

Many thanks for this one. It's one that I read about but never heard. Thanks for letting us look through the window to the past.

I beleive this recording takes place at the "Manhattan Club".

All,

I'm happy that you like this record. It is one of my favorites here and it seems it was a big surprise for you.

Joe Carter, nice tip. I'm googling (ouch!) this Manhattan Club and see what I can gather from this.

Thanks.

Cheers, zecalouro
