Hello, Good Night! I will not forget that Juarez Araujo post from yesterday with the pictures sent by Jean Yves. Great. Everybody is happy, Jean sent me a very nice email and I received other warm messages from Loronixers. I just want to make one thing clear, the guy at the cover of Juarez LPs is not Juarez, perhaps a contracted person just to make the photos.Anyway, let's talk about this post; this is Nelson Angelo e Joyce - Nelson Angelo e Joyce (1972), for Odeon, the third Joyce LP from Joyce, a Brazilian singer with several fans at Loronix. Joyce was married with Nelson Angelo when this LP was recorded in 1972. I think this makes the difference on this nice album with both playing and making several duets together as they were rehearsing on their living room. People say that this is a classic album from Brazilian MPB in the 70's. Let's check it together. Tracks include:
01 - Um Gosto de Fruta (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
02 - Hotel Universo (Nelson Ângelo / Ronaldo Bastos)
03 - Sete Cachorros (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
04 - Linda (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
05 - Comunhão (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
06 - Ponte Nova (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce) - with: Novelli
07 - The Man From The Avenue (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
08 - Tiro Cruzado (Nelson Ângelo / Márcio Borges)
09 - Pessoas (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
10 - Meus Vinte Anos (Joyce / Ronaldo Bastos)
11 - Mantra (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
12 - Vivo Ou Morto (Danilo Caymmi / João Carlos Pádua)
13 - Tudo Começa de Novo (Nelson Ângelo / Joyce)
In my opinion, this is a seminal piece of music and should be in everyone's library even if this is the only Brazilian recording they own. A hauntingly gorgeous recording that blows my mind every time I hear it and gives me chills.
ReplyDeleteBotaram um cara mais 'fotogênico' do que Juarez na capa do disco dele, coisa que era comum em tempos idos. Acho que já te contei, Zeca, que levei anos para descobrir que Bobby ('Sunny') Hebb era preto. Nas capas só apareciam moças bonitas, que nem no LP de Tito Madi 'Chove Lá Fora'.
ReplyDeleteRefer,
ReplyDeletePois é. E a confusão aqui ainda é maior porque foi o mesmo modelo em dois albums. Confesso que também dou umas escorregadas de vez em quando.
Aqui no Rio, tinha um deputado chamado Aloisio Teixeira que só fazia campanha de folheto com uma foto do tempo em que tinha uns 25 anos. Na verdade, ele era um caco velho, não o Caco Velho, um caco.
Se é que você me entende...
Abraços, zeca
Dear Zeca,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this truly lovely album -- definitely reminiscent of Milton's *Clube...* but unique too, a bit more jazzy, a bit less Beatlesque.
It also fits wonderfully on a playlist with the Burnier and Cartier albums and the *Cravo Canela* album -- inventive, melodic, harmonically complicated but rhythmically groovy music from the mid-'70s. Any more in this vein would be very much appreciated!
Olá,
ReplyDeleteO LP possui ficha técnica com o nome dos músicos. Basta acessar o site da cantora Joyce e conferir a discografia da artista: www.joycemoreno.com
Obrigado
Paulo
