Os Vocalistas Modernos - Os Vocalistas Modernos Novamente em Foco (1960)

It is unbelievable that Loronix is making the release of the second LP of this unique vocal group from the early 60's. Their debut LP was released here two or three months ago, by that time, everybody had a lot of fun with it, let's what happens now.

With the great help of Caetano Rodrigues, zecalouro presents, Os Vocalistas Modernos - Os Vocalistas Modernos Novamente em Foco (1960), for Philips, released few months before the debut LP. Os Vocalistas Modernos are five girls, Ivone, Odalea, Vera, Consuelo and Marly, and four guys, Edgardo, Cosme, Abelardo and Emmanuel. Carlos Monteiro de Souza is in charge of the arrangements. Phillips, on both linear notes, do the best to make you believe that Os Vocalistas Modernos are the "future of the modern Brazilian music", but apparently, they made only a third LP in 1961 before disappearing. Anyway, if you miss the first, have a try, it is a very nice LP. Tracks include:

01 - Samba da Minha Terra (Dorival Caymmi)
02 - Samba de Uma Nota Só (Tom Jobim / Newton Mendonça)
03 - Samba É Isto (Alcebíades Nogueira / José Batista)
04 - Samba do Perroquet (Djalma Ferreira / Ivone Rebelo)
05 - Samba Torto (Tom Jobim / Aloysio de Oliveira)
06 - Samba Feliz (Osvaldo Santiago / Roberto Martins)
07 - André de Sapato Novo (André Victor Correia)
08 - Se Você Jurar (Ismael Silva / Nilton Bastos / Francisco Alves)
09 - Gavião Calçudo (Pixinguinha)
10 - Os Quindins de Yayá (Ary Barroso)
11 - Um Chorinho Diferente (Gaúcho / Ivone Rebelo)
12 - Casa de Sopapo (Custódio Mesquita / Luis Peixoto)

I have a single by them from 1968 called "Passacalha," from the song festival competitions. Verrrry Nice!!! So at least we know they were still active by then....

So far this is a great album and an excellent sounding 320kb rip.

But the file I downloaded seems to have problems. I've listened to the first four songs so far and all of them seem to skip or have missing chunks of information. I doubt this is from the original transfer from the LP, but it could be.

Zeca could you check it out?

And thanks to Zeca and Caetano Rodrigues for sharing this music with us.
