Quarteto Lambari - Quarteto Lambari (1966)

This post and the first of the day, by the sax player Domingos Pecci have a strong connection that I could realize together with Caetano Rodrigues and confirm later with some Internet research. Before we speak about this connection, I want to say that we have a very good LP by this obscure Bossa Jazz quartet that only a friend such like Caetano can provide to us. Thanks once again, Caetano, you will read zecalouro saying thanks several times during the next weeks.

Before listening to this album, I found interesting this beautiful name, Lambari, a Brazilian fish, a river in Minas Gerais and also the City of Lambari that is close to this river. Now I know that Lambari is the nickname Eduardo Pecci, top-notch sax player and son of Domingos Pecci, the kind of thing that you only realize when we pick together such as today.

Anyway, let's talk about the great music of Quarteto Lambari - Quarteto Lambari (1966), for Farroupilha, as I said, very nice instrumental set, led by Eduardo Pecci "Lambari" (sax alto) with Hilton J. Valente "Gogo" (piano), Roberto B. H. de Azevedo "capacete" (bass) and Hamilton Pitorri (drums). Eduardo Pecci is still making his life as a musician. I will search about the others later, all great musicians. Tracks include:
