Cinco Estrelas - Interpretam a Bossa Nova (1963)

Taking the advantage of the enormous success and feedback given to Caetano's last RGE compilation O Melhor da Bossa, I will pick another one sent by the same and tireless Caetano Rodrigues. Now we go with ten Bossa Nova interpretations by 5 Brazilian female singers. Let's see.

This is Cinco Estrelas Interpretam a Bossa Nova (1963), for Copacabana, featuring Elizeth Cardoso, Marisa, Carminha Mascarenhas, Morgana and Lucienne Franco. Perhaps I'm wrong, Copacabana label did not release much records like this, since this is the first Copacabana compilation I have seen so far. Anyway, really a nice treat to hear the ladies singing Bossa Nova and also hear for the first time the voice of Carminha Mascarenhas, never released before at Loronix. I don't need to say that this is a really hard to find album provided by Caetano Rodrigues. Tracks include:

01 - Menino Travesso (Moacir Santos / Vinicius de Moraes) - ELIZETH CARDOSO
02 - Chora Tua Tristeza (Oscar Castro Neves / Luvercy Fiorini) - MARISA
03 - Ciúme Teu Ma (Walter / Joluz) - CARMINHA MASCARENHAS
