Bezerra da Silva - Bezerra da Silva e um Punhado de Bambas (1982)

Hello, Good Night! I decided today to make another bike ride at the beach. That last one was zecalouro's craziness, the previous round trip circuit Leme - Copacabana - Arpoador - Ipanema - Leblon was reduced this time to Leme - Copacabana - Arpoador, where I had the chance to stop for a while to se the sunset. Blame it on zecalouro for not carrying his camera.

The sun is up on the last 3 weeks and does not show willing to rest, Copacabana sidewalk is a party on these times, I saw several samba groups performing live and that was exactly what I need to have this post idea. Let's see how it works.

This is Bezerra da Silva - Bezerra da Silva e um Punhado de Bambas (1982), for RCA Vik, kindly put inside the pen drive sent by Moos. Bezerra da Silva is an unique artist, he shares with Moreira da Silva, which will be also released very soon, the title of King of Carioca Malice (O Rei da Malandragem), with which Bezerra da Silva shows with his music the life at Rio Favelas, describing on lyrics the scenarios of drugs, violence and crime on a very humorous manner. Bezerra da Silva should be a real treat for us, used to listen to Bossa Nova, Jazz, etc. I'm very curious to receive feedback.
