Escolas de Samba - Batucada Fantastica Vol. 2 (1975)

This is a quick post to address the request of Andreas Pavel from IMMB, which is our partner site Instituto da Memoria Musical Brasileira that owns and maintain the great discography available at Jornal Musical. I'm not sure this post should address Andreas request since he was looking for Luciano Perrone - Batucada Fantastica Vol. 2 for Musidisc. This is also Batucada Fantastica Vol. 2 for Musidisc, but Luciano Perrone is not credited. Let's see what we have.

This is Escolas de Samba - Batucada Fantastica Vol. 2 (1975), for Musidisc. Thanks to GK for making zecalouro remembers this album, as a great coincidence, GK offered Batucada Fantastica Vol. 2 in the same day I was taking the music out of it. GK said this is one of the greatest covers he have seen and I agree. There is no songs or melodies here, it is all about percussion, such like Luciano Perrone releases in the same style. However, Batucada Fantastica Vol. 2 is performed by some of the most famous Escolas de Samba do Rio de Janeiro, making the record vivid as those Carnaval Samba parades or Escolas de Samba rehearsals.
