Caetano will think I'm crazy when we looking this post. A very strong post, but not planned. The reason of change you will know today with the closing post. Caetano should agree with the change and support this decision. Loronixers will stand at their offices, excited with today's last post. Don't sleep. Actually, I will cross the night with eyes opened.Anyway, one of the most frequent questions made by new Loronixers is "What should I take first since I'm not used to Bossa Nova and Brazilian Music". This is a very hard question that I use to skip on answering. I think this album should address this answer very well, giving a chance to starters to get in touch and also amaze the grownups with another wonderful and very hard to find release powered by the great Caetano Rodrigues (reading my text you should realize how zeca is excited with the last post).
This is Os Cariocas - Os Cariocas (1963), for Columbia, a compilation of the early works of the renowned Brazilian vocal group Os Cariocas, featuring songs of the first LP, Os Cariocas - Os Cariocas a Ismael Neto (1958), A Bossa dos Cariocas, released at the same 1963 year and probably songs extracted from singles, EPs or early 78rpm. This cover artwork is also fantastic, showing a girl wearing a t-shirt with Copacabana mosaic under a black background, really unique. Tracks include:
01 - Valsa de Uma Cidade
02 - Se Alguém Disser
03 - Madrugada 3 05
04 - Disse o Que Eu Queria
05 - Me Dá Me Dá
06 - Canção da Volta
07 - Chega de Saudade
08 - Menina Feia
09 - É Gostoso Beijar
10 - Vem Pra Batucada
11 - Se Teus Olhos Dissessem
12 - Seu Nome Não É Maria
