Varios Artistas - Hits da Bossa Nova (1963)

This is the first out of five records released by Philips between 1963 and 1964 with the "hits" from the artists of Philips cast. What a cast! Hits da Bossa Nova is probably one of the best compilations I have ever seen. In spite of the nice repertoire selection, Hits da Bossa Nova features tracks never released on regular recordings, providing a guaranteed entertainment for starters and experienced collectors.

If you are new to Bossa Nova, you should take it.

This is Hits da Bossa Nova (1963), for Philips, featuring Tamba Trio, Sylvia Telles, Sonia Delfino, Carlos Lyra, Baden Powell, Lucio Alves and Sergio Mendes. You cannot go wrong with such selection. Tracks include:

    Great stuff! Nice one! :)

    I have volume 2 somewhere if you'd like a copy ripping.

    Amblito,

    If you can make it on 320Kb with cover scans I will be pleased, as well Loronixers.

    Thanks.

    Hi Zeca,

    I checked all the tracks on this record. All but two came from well kown Philips LP`s by these artists (Lyra`s "Quem quiser encontrar o amor" comes from his "Depois do Carnaval" LP). "Desafinado" by Tamba Trio comes not from one of their early LP`s, this must be a track from a single. "O Barquinho" by Sonia Delfino is not on her Philips album "Canta para a Mocidade", perhaps also a single- track.
    Hits da Bossa Nova Vol.2 has two tracks by Luiz Henrique which are not from his Philips LP but from an early EP-Single. Unfortunaly my copy of this Lp is very scratchy. I hope you will get it with better quality.

    Thanks Frank-oliver,

    I really thought this Lyra track was never issued on any media.

    Don't be afraid about this copy, I found it on a very good condition.

    Cheers, zeca

    I'm recording Hits da Bossa Nova 2 at the moment - the vinyl looks to be in excellent condition, sadly when I've played it there are a few clicks and pops.

    I'll send it your way as soon as possible Zeca but I fear the clicks might be a bit too much.
