Many friends have been asking for this LP to close the Mike Falcao "trilogy". Do not start searching for Mike Falcao, just listen, Mike Falcao was a nickname used by Walter Wanderley to make a series of three LPs from the record label Imperial, probably, Walter Wanderley was under contract and had to create this alias do cheat the record company which he had contractual obligation.
I'm wondering if by the time of these records release, the "real" Mike Falcao was a secret or everybody knew that Mike was Walter Wanderley. The other two Mike Falcao LPs are already available at Loronix, this is the last one and the one that I like most. This is Mike Falcao e Sua Orquestra de Danca - Jato ao Redor do Mundo (no date), for Imperial, another of those records that makes reference to airplanes, aviation, etc. Here, Walter Wanderley dedicates some songs to a world city, with something unique, he is playing piano on some tracks, instead of his Hammond organ. The rain has stopped now and it is dinnertime, I will be right back with two great releases. Stay tuned! Tracks include:
01 - Samba da Minha Terra (Dorival Caymmi)
02 - Matilda Matilda (H. Thomas)
03 - Siboney (Ernesto Lecuona)
04 - Ay Cosita Linda (Pacho Galan)
05 - Olhos Negros (Tradicional)
06 - Regalo de Viaje (Agustin Lara)
07 - Nunca aos Domingos (Never On Sunday) (M. Hadjidakis / Larue)
08 - Manhattan (R. Rodgers / L. Hart)
09 - Autumn In New York (V. Duke)
10 - April In Paris (V. Duke / E. Y. Harburg)
11 - Lisboa Antiga (Raul Portela / J. Galhardo / A. do Vale)
12 - Cidade de São Sebastião (Wilson Batista / Antônio Nássara)
