Francis Hime - Francis Hime (1973)

The last sabadabada update brings a wonderful Samba Jazz album by a group called Os Seis em Ponto, lead by an artist never mentioned before at Loronix, Francis Hime. You should not miss Os Seis em Ponto at Sabadabada.com. In response, it is the time to check the acclaimed Francis Hime debut LP as main performer, one of Mr. D&C favorites.

This is Francis Hime - Francis Hime (1973), for Odeon. Francis Hime is a composer, arranger, singer and also classical composer that has written and performed symphonies. In this first LP, Francis Hime is in charge of arrangements and conduction with Aloysio de Oliveira on production direction and Maestro Lindolfo Gaya as musical director. I hope you enjoy this very subtle debut LP. Personnel listing is not credited. Tracks include:

01 - Atrás da Porta (Chico Buarque / Francis Hime)
02 - A Meia-luz (Francis Hime / Ruy Guerra)
03 - Olivia (Francis Hime)
04 - Sem Mais Adeus (Vinicius de Moraes / Francis Hime)
05 - Ave-maria (Francis Hime / Ruy Guerra)
06 - Valsa Rancho (Chico Buarque / Francis Hime)
07 - Minha (Francis Hime / Ruy Guerra)
08 - Último Canto (Francis Hime / Ruy Guerra)
09 - Réquiem (Francis Hime / Ruy Guerra)

This album has two of MPB's masterpiece ballads, 'Atrás da Porta' e 'Minha'. The bridge part of the song 'Minha' always brings the tear to my eye. Great post, Zeca!

Parabéns pelo post, Zeca. Tava devendo mesmo o Francis Hime por aqui, outro grande Músico (eme maiúsculo mesmo !!) pouco reconhecido.
Abs.

Ô Zeca, por favor, não entenda meu post anterior como crítica negativa quando falei de "estar devendo"; foi só um jeito de falar, o teu blog é fantástico !
Abração, mal aí !
