Los Bossambistas - Los Bossambistas y La Bossa Nova

Hello, Good Evening! I want to start saying that the yesterday's experience with FLAC files at Elizeth Cardoso posts is not to replace standard MP3s. FLAC files will be made available only once in a while as a plus, MP3s files are the standard and will be every time available. I hope this statement will make people more relaxed...

Let's start today with a Bossa Nova album recorded in Argentina by Argentinean musicians, sent by Enrique Dufal and by Caetano Rodrigues on his last package.

This is Los Bossambistas - Los Bossambistas y La Bossa Nova (no date), for Columbia. Little is known about this album and the help from Argentinean friends will be necessary to add more information to this post. Los Bossambistas is a quintet with bass, guitar, drums, sax and trumpet and it it probably lead by a well-known Argentinean musician, Miki Lerman. Tracks include:

1-Muñeca-Carlos Medina
4-Chico Novarro
8-Carlos Medina-Chico Novarro
9-Lucho Neves-H.V.B.Oneco. Is an argentine Zamba (not Samba) arranged as Bossa Nova.
Chico Novarro is a singer and compositer of Boleros, Tangos, Cumbias. His songs are singed by many artist in all the world. But he is also a very good jazz drummer, with the name of Miki Lerman. Is the same person. (Excuse my bad english)

Enrique,
Thank you for the information & for introducing me to some artists unfamiliar to me.
I always seem to learn something new on Loronix.
