Tito Madi - A Fossa (1971)

In one of those quick polls I use to make showing post alternatives to friends, the great GK said something very important, he said that Tito Madi deserves more posts at Loronix. I agree with GK, so I decided to start with what is considered Tito Madi most successful and important albums, the first out of the four of his A Fossa series, recoded respectively in 1971, 1972, 1973, and 1974 for London, which is a subsidiary of Odeon.

This is Tito Madi - A Fossa (1971), for London. For a long time, I though this "A Fossa" series was dedicated to the same A Fossa style, which is a kind of romantic Samba Cancao with influences of Boleros and American Ballads. However, Fossa is the name of a nightclub in Rio de Janeiro where Tito Madi performed several years in the 70's. This series brings these fantastic phsychodelic covers that you cannot stop starring and finding new details. Let's see how Loronixers feedback this release. Tracks include:
