Os Saxsambistas Brasileiros - Bossa Nova Espetacular (60's)

This is a special LP featuring special musicians that is being reposted to Loronixers with the help of Caetano Rodrigues. Some records are part of the time they were recorded and released, I think that an equivalent LP such like this recorded on this decade will never have the charm, magic and impact of hearing such perfect music released 40 years ago. This is the magic to see everybody pleased by a forgotten record made more than 40 years ago.

This is Os Saxsambistas Brasileiros - Bossa Nova Espetacular (60's), for Plaza, arranged by Jose Pacheco Lins and Henrique Gandelman, which is the father of the Brazilian sax player Leo Gandelman. Bossa Nova Espetacular is a top-notch instrumental LP with a repertoire based on Bossa Nova standards and songs composed by Henrique Gandelman. The personnel brings together several names that we are already used to appreciate on later posts, such as: Juarez Araujo, Moacyr Silva, Neco, Wilson das Neves, among others, the full listing is available bellow.
