Os Poligonais - Os Poligonais (1964)

My mobile carrier made a offer to change my phone for another, no charge, they said I could pick the one I like most inside a limit of price. I did not decline the offer and now I'm the happy owner of a big mobile phone with GPS, Bluethoot, Camera, Video and MP3! Really nice, such like an iPod. So I decided to put some Loronix music inside it and my first choice was this album. When I took it for a first hearing, I decided to make another rip. I like this album. Naturally, this new ripping needs to appear at Loronix first page and I hope you appreciate this new version of this fantastic record. Let's see.

This is Os Poligonais - Os Poligonais (1964), for RCA Victor. Os Poligonais members are not professional musicians; each one has an occupation, as described at personnel listing. I don't know if they became professional musicians later or just made this album and the second and last one for Farroupilha Label. Anyway, I'm not a specialist on Jazz, but I think if every Jazz record has this positive and beautiful atmosphere, I will become a Jazz aficionado very soon. Tracks include:

De fato ao menos um dos membros d'os poligonais seguiu carreira de medicina...mas os bons filhos à casa tornam.
em http://www.crmsp.org.br/index.php?siteAcao=Jornal&id=324 materia sobre a mãe do Sax tenor do grupo em que há uma referencia a ele proprio.
