Moacyr Silva e Seu Conjunto - Moacyr Silva (1956) 10-inch

Hello, Good Evening! We are starting solid today with an album that could easily be positioned as the closing post. Wowww, this is just the second Moacyr Silva album, a 10-inch recorded in 1956, kindly sent by the bossanovadreamer to Loronixers. Thanks a million, friend. I never had such an old album - 51 years - as perfect as this one. I don't want to miss yours and my time, so let's check what we have here.

This is Moacyr Silva e Seu Conjunto - Moacyr Silva (1956), for Copacabana, featuring the sax tenor of Moacyr Silva and legends such Chaim Lewak, Dom Um Romao, among others. I don't have this info, but this is probably the first Dom Um Romao album as sideman. FLAC files are delayed today, so stay tuned for them in the next hour. Tracks include:

    Hello Zeca,
    I love you for all you do here at Loronix and it is allways a pleasure to read that your are also a member of Moacyr's fanclub (perhps I should create one ) -)).I am happy about the quality of this album . Really you read somwhere perhaps on the backcover that this is Moacyr's second album ?? I allways thought it was his first one recording.


    Best wishes

    Hello Bossanovadreamer,

    The first is Dancando com Voce, also in the 10-inch format, released in the same 1956.

    It is easy to understand this one is the second, just look at this cover and you will see Dancando com Voce at the floor, close to Moacyr.

    Cheers, zeca
