Conjunto Brasilia Ritmos - Ritmos do Brasil (1959) featuring Sivuca

I was reluctant to make this post, worried that you might think this is a record for completionists and fans of the lovely guy holding the accordion at the right side, but I learned that several other artists took part on this group. Additionally, the record is good, especially if you are in the mood of a Brazilian regional music with a lot of viola, percussion and accordion, for sure. Let's see what is the feedback.

This is Conjunto Brasilia Ritmos - Ritmos do Brasil (1959), for Odeon, featuring Sivuca, Waldir Azevedo, Tiao Marinho and others. Little is know about this album and Conjunto Brasilia Ritmos, except a detailed personnel listing, which was gathered from Jornal Musical. If someone has additional information about this project, feel free to write a comment. I have been tracking it down today with no success. Tracks include:
