The Bossanovadreamer just said that I could not forget to release this LP today, since it was promised yesterday and many Pery Ribeiro's fans would be really disappointed if did not make it today. So, here it is, Pery Ribeiro - Pery e Todo Bossa (1963), for Odeon.
I'm surprised that Pery has so many fans at Loronix. We need to check one thing, on an interview for Jo Soares a couple of months ago, Pery Ribeiro said that he was the first to record the anthological song Garota de Ipanema, question: is this Garota de Ipanema the first recording or there is another previous one released on single, EP or 78 rpm? Our wonderful Loronix community should come with an answer in a matter of seconds. Tracks include:
01 - Evolução (Geraldo Cunha / Pery Ribeiro)
02 - Me Lembro Vagamente (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
03 - Ah Se Eu Pudesse (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
04 - Rio (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
05 - Queixa Comum (Cirene Mendonça / Ricardo Galeno)
06 - Bossa na Praia (Geraldo Cunha / Pery Ribeiro)
07 - Garota de Ipanema (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
08 - O Que Eu Gosto de Você (Silvio César)
09 - Nós e o Mar (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
10 - Canção de Fim de Tarde (Tereza Souza / Walter Santos)
11 - Só Sei (Tito Madi)
12 - Balanço Moreno (Pery Ribeiro)
YES---this album contains the very first ever recording of the legendary "Garota De Ipanema," recorded a matter of weeks after the song was composed and first performed by Tom Jobim, Joao Gilberto, Vinicius De Moraes and Os Cariocas during their legendary 2-week residency at Rio's Au Bon Gourmet in August 1962....the second recording was, I believe, by Claudette Soares shortly thereafter (and she got some of the words wrong!).
ReplyDeleteBem, existe aquela 'lenda', que a própria Claudette conta, que ela fez a gravação original de 'Garota de Ipanema', porém a Mocambo demorou para lançar o disco.Não sei como foi aí no Rio, Zeca, mas em SPaulo Pery estava em alta, e nada menos que sete faixas desse LP (01-02-03-04-06-07 e 09) foram hits radiofônicos. Deve ser um recorde.
ReplyDeleteGreat album! Thank you for sharing it.
