Tito Madi - A Fossa Vol. 3 (1973)

I was not scheduling another album from Tito Madi series of four "A Fossa" albums, but it is so cold in Brazil and Tito Madi fits nicely on cold days such like we are having here. This is perhaps one of the less known album from the series and in my point of view the best of the four ones. I'm sure we have a great close for this cold Friday.

This is Tito Madi - A Fossa Vol. 3 (1973), for London. Just a nerd curiosity, Volume numbers match the release year, making things easy, such as Volume 1 was released in 1971, Volume 2 in 1972, this one and the final Volume 4 in 1974. This cover is beautiful, although is not the one that I like most in the series, in the other hand, the back cover is fantastic. Let's think about a contest of A Fossa cover artwork when we make the last. Let's be straightforward, Tito Madi is here and it is cold outside, time to go to bed. Have a nice weekend and don't miss tomorrow's posts, Loronix amazing Samba day. Tracks include:

01 - Canto Triste (Edu Lobo / Vinicius de Moraes)
02 - Duas Contas (Garoto)
03 - Atrás da Porta (Francis Hime / Chico Buarque)
04 - Quero-te Assim (Tito Madi)
05 - Encontro Com a Saudade (Billy Blanco / Nilo Queiroz)
06 - Se Eu Tiver (Ribamar (1) / Dolores Duran)
07 - Graças a Deus Você Voltou (Tito Madi)
08 - Fossa Vol 3 (Tito Madi)
09 - Manias (Flávio Cavalcanti / Celso Cavalcanti)
10 - Demais (Tom Jobim / Aloysio de Oliveira)

Hey Justin,

How are you? Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) is a file format for audio data compression, a lossless compression format, FLAC does not remove information from the audio stream, as lossy compression formats such as MP3 do.

The files are bigger, but the sound quality is much better. You will need a suitable player with a FLAC decoder to spin these files.

Cheers, zeca
