Quarteto Forma - Quarteto Forma (1970)

Hello! Good night! There are several good things to say about the solo LP of Quarteto Forma - Quarteto Forma (1970). This breezy vocal group formed by three guys and a girl is more recognized by collaborations with Osmar Milito LPs. This cover is also of note; they are on top of Moro da Urca, which is the first hill we reach with the cable car to the final destination, the famous Sugar Loaf. I hope someday, when a Loronixer spends vacations in Rio, we can go together to Moro da Urca walking until the top of the hill. It is amazing and pretty easy.

Quarteto Forma is arranged by Maestro Eduardo Lages and Carlos Monteiro de Souza. Personnel, until I could search, is so far unknown. Tracks include:
