Os Cariocas - Mestres da MPB (1994)

We cannot go wrong with this album, sent two months ago by a non-identified collaborator. Don't let the cover artwork cheats you; this is not a compilation that can be evaluated at a first sight. Let's see what we have inside.

This is Os Cariocas - Mestres da MPB (1994), for Warner Music. Mestres da MBP was a series of compilations released by Warner to take advantage of the CD age by remastering old analogy tapes to digital format. Everybody asks me to gather the old Os Cariocas 78 rpm recordings, but they are quite impossible to find and this post address this issue bringing some remastered songs released on those recordings. This cover artworks is also of not showing Os Cariocas as a quintet, instead of the usual quartet formation. Thanks collaborator for the nice cover scans and autographs. Tracks include:

    Quem pensava que os Cariocas da fase bossa-nova eram ótimos vai se surpreender com o que eles faziam antes. É difícil encontrar, mesmo nos conjuntos vocais norte-americanos, o nível atingido pelos Cariocas neste cd aqui.
    Abraços,
    Hélio
