Ana Mazzotti - Ninguem Vai me Segurar (1974)

Ana Mazzotti has arrived at Loronix. She is a Brazilian singer from the 70's, specialized in Jazz that release this debut LP in 1974 and two additional releases, one in 1974 and other one in 1982, a recorded live show. Anyway, that is all I know about Ana Mazzotti, but I'm sure that this is sensational LP, Ana Mazzotti - Ninguem Vai me Segurar (1974), for Top Tape.

Thanks Max de Castro that provided with his great sharing spirit this LP to Loronixers. Max describes this record with a great enthusiasm and I agree with Max, this is a flawless JazzFunky record from the 70's, with Anna Mazzotti backed up by three Azimuth members, including the mighty Jose Roberto Bertrami (moog, organ and piano), Alex Malheiros (bass and guitars), Romildo T. Santos (drums) and Ariovaldo (percussion). I think this is one of those LPs that are released quiet and becomes all time favorites. Tracks include:

01 - Agora Ou Nunca Mais (Ana Mazzotti / José Roberto Bertrami)
02 - Roda Mundo (Ana Mazzotti)
03 - Acalanto (Ana Mazzotti / José Roberto Bertrami)
04 - Cordão (Chico Buarque)
05 - De Um Jeito Só (Ana Mazzotti)
06 - Eu Sou Mais Eu (Ana Mazzotti)
07 - Canto de Meditação (Ana Mazzotti)
08 - Feel Like Making Love (Gene Mac Daniela)
09 - Bairro Negro (Ana Mazzotti)
10 - Sou (José Roberto Bertrami / Ezidio)

Great album! My friend, the drummer Vanderlei Pereira, told me he knew her when she unfortunately passed away in the 80s---she got a headache, went into the hospital and sadly never came back out....

fala loro, tranquilo cara?
po, primeiro, parabens pelo blog cara. teus posts me tornaram mais brasileiro do que nunca.
segundo, só pra registrar aqui, o album "Jorge Ben & Trio Mocoto - On Stage - In Japan with Trio Mocoto (1972)" deu pau na hora de abrir. (pelo menos a primeira parte, não tentei a segunda ainda)
terceiro, e pra finalizar, uma sugestão: existe alguma gravação do heitor dos prazeres?

Parabéns Loro e muito obrigado ao Max Castro por essa preciosidade. Sobre a Ana Mazzotti, ando a procura de um outro trabalho onde ela interpreta músicas de diversos cantores entre elas Silly Love Songs - Wings. O nome era ANA MAZZOTTI E CONJUNTO DESENVOLVIMENTO. Acho que tinha uns 12 anos quando vi eles montarem os equipamentos e fazerem uma passagem de som aqui na minha cidade - Venâncio Aires/RS - lá pelos idos de 1975. Tudo de bom prá vocês.

I've been looking for this album for 5 years since first hearing Eu Sou mais eu on a Live 365 internet radio station. What a wonderful singer to be so utterly unknown! See that Amazon now has a reasonably priced reissue (self-titled) which I will probably buy for the better quality sound, but in the interim I'm very grateful for the chance to finally hear all the tracks. Thanks much for the chance to share this file.
