Jose Luciano, Seu Piano e Ritmo - Sambas (1955) 10'

This is a really old record, probably one of the oldest at Loronix. Actually, the oldest is Dalva de Oliveira - A Voz Sentimental do Brasil (1953), but this has something special, it is an instrumental album with piano, the record label is the legendary Mocambo including the little house with the name Mocambo on wood and it is the debut record of a unknown – at least for zecalouro - artist.

This is Jose Luciano, Seu Piano e Ritmo - Sambas (1955), for Mocambo, as said the debut LP of the pianist Jose Luciano. I could not search additional information about Jose Luciano with this computer crash, but you will read at the linear notes that Jose Luciano started at the age of six in 1938, worked with Dorival Caymmi and Luiz Gonzaga on radio and was discovered by Mocambo folks while testing a piano on a record store. That's it. Tracks include:

01 - Risque (Ary Barroso)
02 - Nem Eu (Dorival Caymmi)
03 - Feitiço da Vila (Noel Rosa / Vadico)
04 - Carinhoso (Pixinguinha / João de Barro)
05 - Aquarela do Brasil (Ary Barroso)
06 - Palpite Infeliz (Noel Rosa)
07 - De Cigarro Em Cigarro (Luis Bonfá)
08 - Copacabana (João de Barro / Alberto Ribeiro)
