This is the right choice for a Saturday night, one of those releaxed Milton Banana Trio albums from the "Samba e Isso" series, a numbered series with the last three ones dedicated to Chico Buarque, Tom Jobim and Vinicius. We already made Milton Banana tribute to Tom Jobim and this is the time to show what he made to Chico Buarque. The last one to Vinicius de Moraes is probably the hardest to find, at least, I do not have it so far.This is Milton Banana Trio - Ao Meu Amigo Chico | Samba e Isso Vol. 3 (1979), for RCA Victor. Personnel is not listed and each track brings two Chico Buarque tunes. Some tracks have nice female vocals on a delicious record to hear. This cover is amazing and the album to Vinicius has also an amazing cover with Milton having a beer at Garota de Ipanema bar with the Girl of Ipanema walking around. Tracks include:
01 - Cálice (Chico Buarque / Gilberto Gil) Quando o Carnaval Chegar (Chico Buarque)
