Elza Soares - Com a Bola Branca (1966)

Friends, what a wonderful record. I was decided to keep Flicts as the last post for several reasons, but when I was just getting ready to rest, hear some music and plan tomorrows posts, I took this LP for a listen and I could not resist to be back and present Elza Soares - Com a Bola Branca (1966), for Odeon.

It has been a very long time since the last Elza Soares release at Loronix, but now she is back to the spotlight on a great style. This LP is arranged by Nelsinho do Trombone that makes a nice brass duel with Elza's harsh voice in all tracks. Since I could not make any research on this LP, I will be straightforward. Tracks include:

01 - Quizumba (Serrinha)
02 - Estatuto de Gafieira (Billy Blanco)
03 - Nem Vem Nem Vai (Sinval Silva)
04 - No Carnaval (Mendes)
05 - Jogado Fora (João Mello)
06 - A Vida Como Ela É (Julio Dias de Castro)
07 - A Infelicidade (Mauro Duarte / Niltinho)
08 - Deixa a Nega Gingar (Luis Cláudio)
09 - Brincadeira Tem Hora (Mário Castro Neves / Chico Feitosa)
10 - Volta Pro Morro (Manoel Ferreira / Célio Cyrino)
11 - Meu Tudo e Porque (Carlito / Romeo Nunes)
12 - Tudo É Balanço (Niquinho / Nilton Pereira)
