This is the second album at Loronix by this Brazilian female singer that I like very much. The first one was recorded with Walter Wanderley, her husband at that time. Neyde Fraga has one of the most swinging voices I have ever heard on a female singer and this album is so good as the other one with Walter Wanderley. Let's see how Loronixers feedback this one.This is Neyde Fraga - Mais Balanco com Neyde Fraga (1965), for Continental, an contagious samba album with a swingy big band orchestra and arrangements shared by Erlon Chaves and Francisco de Moraes. Actually each one is in charge of six arrangements as indicated at track list. Neyde Fraga recorded several 78 rpm, some singles, EPs, three LPs and for reasons that I don't know she stop her career after releasing this album. The third Neyde Fraga LP is a 10-inch format, released in 1957 for Odeon. I'm tracking down this one and any hint is really appreciated. Tracks include:
01 - Samba Jazz (Ely Silva / Meneguim Júnior) ERLON CHAVES
02 - Gente (Marcos Valle / Paulo Sergio Valle) FRANCISCO DE MORAES
03 - Dor de Separar (Hilton Accioli / Roberto Luna) ERLON CHAVES
04 - Miss Biquini (Sylvio Mazzuca / Zuleika Amaral) FRANCISCO DE MORAES
05 - Só Deus e Eu (Jorge Costa / Sebastião da Silveira) ERLON CHAVES
06 - Mar Amar (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli) FRANCISCO DE MORAES
07 - Balançafro (Luis Bandeira) FRANCISCO DE MORAES
08 - Posto Seis (Zé Keti / José Ari) ERLON CHAVES
09 - Arrastão (Edu Lobo / Vinicius de Moraes) FRANCISCO DE MORAES
10 - Onda Quebrando (Zil Rosendo) ERLON CHAVES
11 - Barquinho Diferente (Sergio Augusto) FRANCISCO DE MORAES
12 - Vá Ser Feliz (Geraldo Vandré) ERLON CHAVES

I'm not aware that this singer was ever married to Walter Wanderley, I don't believe this to be correct. The only singer I know he was married to was Isaura Garcia.
Nevertheless a real cool album. Recommended from me. Thank you, Zeca.
