Joao Mello - A "Bossa" do Balanco (1963) with Tamba Trio

I'm sure that this post will make several friends happy and excited. Thanks once again Caetano Rodrigues, this LP is really hard to find, a really sought-after item that you kindly provide to our community. In spite the participation of Tamba Trio in all tracks, I think that what makes this album desired by many is this wonderful cover artwork, fantastic work when you see as big as the LP size. Let's see how Loronixers feedback on this post.
