Dick Farney - Um Piano ao Cair da Tarde Nr. 2 (1975)

This was probably one of the hardest to find albums recorded by Dick Farney, actually this is the hardest Dick Farney on 12-inch, the first Dick Farney albums released at the 10-inch format seems to be near to impossible. Luiz strikes again, now with music and video. A legendary Dick Farney fan that we know will probably have breakfast tomorrow with the sound of the piano.

This is Dick Farney - Um Piano ao Cair da Tarde Nr. 2 (1975), for Odeon, the continuation of the nice Um Piano ao Cair da Tarde, already available at Loronix. The same sucessful formula, Dick Farney for advanced listeners, no bass, no drums, no singing, only Dick Farney and the piano with a repertoire of standards. In addition to the music, I'm showing a wonderful video with the complete participation of Dick Farney Trio at TV Cultura. The video has a relaxed atmosphere with Dick Farney singing and backed by Toninho (drums) and Saba (bass). Tracks include:

01 - You Go To My Head (H. Gillespie / J. F. Coots)
02 - Autumn Leaves (Les Feuilles Mortes) (J. Kosma / J. Prevert)
03 - What's New (B. Haggart / J. Burke)
04 - Georgia On My Mind (H. Carmichael)
05 - September Song (Kurt Weill / W. Anderson)
06 - Because Of You (A. Hammerstein / D. Wilkinson)
07 - Tea For Two (V. Youmans / I. Cassar)
08 - It Might as Well Be Spring (R. Rodgers / O. Hammerstein II)
09 - When I Fall In Love (V. Young / E. Heyman)
10 - St Louis Blues (W. C. Handy)
11 - My Funny Valentine (R. Rodgers / L. Hart)
12 - Swanee River (Old Folks At Home) (S. Forster)
