Dick Farney e Claudette Soares - Dick & Claudette | Tudo Isto e Amor vol. 2 (1976)

I just spoke with Caetano by phone and he said the next package - a special and very different one - would be mailed tomorrow, first time in the morning. Tomorrow will be another day of tension on a day that seems to last 48 hours. Several other things are scheduled for tomorrow and I think it is better stop talking about it now before I spoil Caetano's surprise with my big tongue.

These phone calls are also useful to get recommendations from Caetano and this album was celebrated when mentioned, by the way, what can go wrong when you have Dick Farney and Claudette Soares together? I really don't know.

This is Dick Farney e Claudette Soares - Dick & Claudette | Tudo Isto e Amor Vol. 2 (1976), for Odeon, the second out of two albums released by Dick Farney in collaboration with Claudette Soares. This is not about Dick Farney piano accompanying Claudette Soares, they are singing together and the duets are beautiful, their voices and interpretation styles matches nicely. Personnel is not credited, but Dick Farney plays piano for sure and the legendary Saba from Jongo Trio is the executive producer. Tracks include:

01 - Chuva (Durval Ferreira / Pedro Camargo)
02 - Nós (Johnny Alf)
03 - Demais (Tom Jobim / Aloysio de Oliveira)
04 - Casualmente (Berimbau)
05 - Fim de Caso (Dolores Duran)
06 - Apelo (Baden Powell / Vinicius de Moraes)
07 - Nick Bar (José Vasconcelos)
08 - Preciso Aprender a Ser Só (Marcos Valle / Paulo Sergio Valle)
09 - Ela Foi Embora (Oscar Bellandi / Djalma Ferreira)
10 - Tomara (Novelli / Paulo César Pinheiro / Maurício Tapajós)
11 - O Amor Em Paz (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
