Osmar Milito - Ligia (1978)

Hi again. I think this is the right choice for a Friday night, for those who arrive late at home, coming from some cultural agenda, show, nightclub or even drinking with co-workers. This is music to settle down, far away of those weird classifications we see around, such as: elevator music, easy listening, etc. We are talking about acoustic and electric piano of Osmar Milito, backed by renowned musicians.

This is Osmar Milito - Ligia (1978), for Continental. Osmar Milito is the brother of Helcio Milito from the Tamba Trio. Osmar Milito backed up several artists, such as Elis Regina, Sylvia Telles, Hermeto Pascoal and others. We have already some early Milito LPs at Loronix, but nothing so jazzy and instrumental oriented such like this one provided by Caetano. Tracks include:
