Quarteto em Cy - Pontos de Luz (1982)

I had more than a few alternatives to close the day, but when I saw this cover and remembered that Quarteto em Cy was not made available for more than a month, I could not resist. So, here we go on another Quarteto em Cy album. The girls have a great production this time, with voice arrangements by Raymundo Bittencourt and Cesar Camargo Mariano, instrumental arrangements by Lincoln Olivetti and everything produced by Raymundo Bittencourt.

This is Quarteto em Cy - Pontos de Luz (1982), for Som Livre, featuring Cybele, Cyva , Cynara and Soninha, which is current Quarteto em Cy formation, unchanged since 1980. Pontos de Luz has a strong influence of Lincoln Olivetti arrangements, delivering a lot of synthesizers to back the girl’s voice. Anyway, it is a really unusual album by Quarteto em Cy and I hope Loronixers give feedback on it. Tracks include:
