Corisco e Os Sambaloucos - Incendio no Samba (1965)

Friends, I told you yesterday, Caetano was really inspired when selected the picks to include in this current package. This is really the one with the hardest to find selections ever. Do not think that we are ordering the rare ones first, the criterion is based on variety and organization of different styles at our first page, between many other cosmetic, and very important things.

I have been tracking this album down with several other friends and I admit that my hope had gone, it was already filed under "impossible". Among Samba Jazz fans, this is the legendary "fire truck album" and I never could realize how beautiful this cover would be and how good the music is. I'm sure we are having a "magic moment" at Loronix and all credits should go to Caetano Rodrigues.

This is Corisco e Os Sambaloucos - Incendio no Samba (1965), for Philips. If you are already an expert on Corisco e Os Sambaloucos though the previous releases, do not miss this one, they seems to make it better on each release on their unique blending of Samba Jazz, unusual instruments with fun on top of everything.
