Milton Banana Trio - Tipo Exportacao (Samba e Isso) Vol. 2 (1978)

I'm really happy with this Samba Saturday day, three solid releases covering different Samba styles. We started with Marchinhas de Carnaval, performed by several Brazilian artists, with some of them never spoke before, then we moved to the 70's, showing Sonia Lemos and her third album for Continental, based on Samba de Raiz with Afro-Brazilian influences and the great finish with an artist that everybody likes, the legendary Milton Banana Trio. Three solid released very different to each other.

This is Milton Banana Trio - Tipo Exportacao (Samba e Isso) Vol. 2 (1978), for RCA Pure Gold. This cover alone worth the admission price, but there is another very nice finding on this album, Milton Banana sings for the first time on recording and he sings the last track, a medley with Milton's tribute to Joao Gilberto. Personnel is not credited, but Milton Banana also writes liner notes and say special thanks to Maestro Cido Bianchi (in charge of arrangements), the bassist Claudio, the guitarist Heraldo and Edson. I'm not sure if they take part on this session. Tracks include:

01 - Oi Compadre (Martinho da Vila)
02 - Olho Por Olho (Daniel Santos / Zé do Maranhão)
03 - Qual É a do Boi (Herval Rios / Beto Sem Braço)
04 - Saco de Feijão (Francisco Santana)
05 - Ilha de Maré (Walmir Lima / Lupa)
06 - Eu Sou Bicho Homem (Otacílio / Ari do Cavaco)
07 - Tigresa (Caetano Veloso)
08 - Coisa da Antiga (Wilson Moreira / Nei Lopes)
09 - Propagas (Jorge Lucas)
10 - Por Que Será (Jorge Di)
11 - Ai Que Vontade (Dão / Beto Sem Braço)
12 - De Tombar Caminhão (Benito di Paula)
13 - "Ao Meu Amigo João" A Felicidade (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes) Chega de Saudade (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes) Doralice (Dorival Caymmi / Antônio Almeida) Bim Bom (João Gilberto) Aos Pés da Cruz (Marino Pinto / Zé da Zilda) Izaura (Herivelto Martins / Roberto Roberti)
