Trio Maraya - Trio Maraya (1966)

Sorry, a last minute technical problem jeopardized the second release provided by that massive contribution made today. But do not worry, Loronix engineers are already working on the third, a truly awesome album requested by several friends at Loronix. Meanwhile, I think we cannot go wrong with this album that makes me feel very proud, a sought after piece by several collectors gave to me as a friendly gift by Caetano Rodrigues.

This is Trio Maraya - Trio Maraya (1966), for Som Maior. I always heard about Trio Maraya as a Samba Jazz trio, such like, Bossa Tres and others, actually they are a blend of Bossa Nova combo with regional music from Brazil Northeast. Trio Maraya also delivers consistent vocal arrangements. Caetano said this album was hunted by everybody a couple of years ago and continues listed with very high prices in auction sites. Ely Arcoverde can be considered member number "four" of Trio Maraya, playing piano, organ and in charge of all instrumental arrangements. Hermeto Pascoal also takes the role of flute player on tracks 02, 04 and 08. Let's feedback Trio Maraya, so we can understand better why this album is on the wish list of every collector. This is a repost with better quality, archiving and cover scans. Tracks include:
