Orlando Silveira - S.O.S. Band It (1974)

Hello, Good Night! We had yesterday an album from a Brazilian Maestro that we never released at Loronix before, the album Bossa with a Beat, by Maestro Expósito e Sua Orquestra. We are starting with the same idea today, presenting a new Maestro with a very different album without the traditional approach of orchestras and Samba. Let's see.

This is Orlando Silveira - S.O.S Band It (1974), for Parlophone. S.O.S stands for Som Orlando Silveira and the cover artwork is the best definition of the sound that you will hear inside it, 70's grooves, very dancing, a blend of brass with soul music. The friends who like the Sounds of the 70's, such like Mr. G. and Mr. Bapt should be pleased with this release and I hope they come to tell us a little bit more of this unusual session by Orlando Silveira. Tracks include:

01 - Kohoutec (Pedrinho / Telck)
02 - Me And You (Joe / D. Jones / D. MacLean)
03 - Goddess Of Love (J. Hart / W. Stafford / B. Liles)
04 - Shangri-la (Sigman / Malneck / Maxwell)
05 - Quasars (Nivaldo Duarte / Stockler)
06 - Concerto Pour Une Voix (Saint-Preux)
07 - Pretty Flower (Peter / Louie / Michael)
08 - Big Splash (Pedrinho / Telck)
09 - Our Love Dream (T. Temple / J. Baker)
10 - The Age Of Love (Fernando Adour)
11 - Long Long Time (Peter / B. Cane / July)
12 - Quem Sabe Sabe (Jota Sandoval / Carvalhinho)
