Nilo Amaro e Seus Cantores de Ebano, a Brazilian vocal group lead by Nilo Amaro and influenced by the American Gospel. We had the chance to know a successful post at Loronix from the Brazilian singer Noriel Vilela, which had his origins at Os Cantores de Ebano, sharing with Nilo Amaro the lead voices.
Nilo Amaro e Seus Cantores de Ebano recorded just a few LPs, this is the late Raizes (1980) with vocal arrangements by Nilo Amaro, backed up by nice Brazilian musicians such as: Almir Sater (viola), Carlinhos (acoustic guitar), Cláudio Bertrami e Isaac (bass) and Bira (Percussão).
It will be very nice to check the Nilo Amaro's baritone voice performing a regional repertoire. Tracks include:
01 - Vovó Maria Baiana (Dom Carlos)
02 - Gralha Azul (Luis Leite / Iaci Pinto)
03 - Guacyra (Hekel Tavares / Juraci Camargo)
04 - Negrinho do Pastoreio (Barbosa Lessa)
05 - Asa Branca (Luis Gonzaga / Humberto Teixeira)
06 - Leva Eu Sodade (Tito Neto / Alventino Cavalcanti)
07 - Romaria (Renato Teixeira)
08 - Peguei Um Ita no Norte (Dorival Caymmi)
09 - Felicidade (Lupicínio Rodrigues) -- Luar do Sertão (Catulo da Paixão Cearense)
10 - Mulher Rendeira (Tradicional / Adpt. Zé do Norte)
11 - Andorinha Preta (Breno Ferreira)
12 - O Uirapuru (Murillo Latini / Jacobina)
