III Loronix Singles & EPs Festival - Os Cariocas & Elis Regina

Yesterday's III Loronix Singles Festival had no feedback, perhaps I need to fine tune my picks and that's what I'm trying to accomplish with the III Loronix EP Festival, featuring two artists with great popularity among Loronixers. Let's see.

This is Os Cariocas - Os Cariocas de Quatrocentas Bossas (1965), for Philips, the "reduced" version of the homonymous LP, one of the Os Cariocas albums that I like most and one of the nicest covers so far at Loronix. Tracks include:

01 - Preciso Aprender a Ser So (Marcos Valle / Paulo Sergio Valle)
02 - Sabe Voce (Carlos Lyra / Vinicius de Moraes)
03 - Gente (Marcos Valle / Paulo Sergio Valle)
04 - Carro de Boi (Mauricio Tapajos / Antonio Carlos de Brito)

Now we are going with four Elis Regina records in a row, one EP and three singles, as follows:

This is Elis Regina - Elis Regina (1971), EP, for Philips, with arrangements by Cesar Carmargo Mariano with tracks taken from ELIS (1971). Tracks include:

01 - Osanah
02 - Nada Sera Como Antes
03 - A Filha de Chico Bento
04 - Casa no Campo

This is Elis Regina - Elis Regina (1965), single, for Philips, featuring Arrastao, winner of I Festival de Musica Popular Brasileira. Tracks include:

01 - Arrastao
02 - Aleluia

This is Elis Regina - Elis Regina (1966), single, for Philips, featuring Saveiros and Canto Triste from I Festival Internacional da Cancao Popular. Tracks include:

01 - Saveiros
02 - Canto Triste

This is the great close with the one that I like most, a single, recorded live at Teatro Record, Sao Paulo. Tracks include:

01 - Canto de Ossanha
02 - Rosa Morena
