Sambacana - VI Sambacana | Praca da Savassi (1979)

Gentleman, what a nice work I had right now with Trix, a Loronixer from Minas Gerais, my favorite state in Brazil, first place is Rio de Janeiro, of course. We worked together exchanging more than 50 emails to decide for this post. I have to admit that Trix put some passion on top of it. This record is all about Minas Gerais and Belo Horizonte. Anyway, thanks Trix for supporting this crazy and painful process, I'm sure Loronixers will have a lot to tell about this LP.

This is Sambacana - VI Sambacana | Praca da Savassi (1979), no label. Trix said this LP is a very limited release made commercially available only in Minas Gerais. Sambacana is lead by Pacifico Mascarenhas, which is a group that you already know at Loronix with some previous releases. Loronix Find It is the right place look for earlier Sambacana releases at Loronix. Well. It's late down here, Trix has disappeared with the additional info and he will probably give us tomorrow some inside information about this session. Tracks include:

Personnel

Pacifico Mascarenhas
(vocal)
Helvius Vilella
(piano, arrangements)
Juarez Moreira
(guitar)
Ezequiel Lima
(bass)
Rubinho and Braguinha
(drums)

Sorry, Trix is back to correct the release date. He also said that Praca da Savassi is a great spot in Belo Horizonte, the right place to see the beautiful girls from Minas Gerais. Thanks Trix.
