Sacha Rubin - No Balaio (1967)

This is the third album from the pianist Sacha Rubin at Loronix. Sacha was also the owner of the legendary Sacha's nightclub, in Rio de Janeiro, Leme, open for business throughout decades in the building left to mine. This album has a great difference from the others already released, it was recorded live, on a manner that you hear people talking to each other and the sounds of the nightclub routine such like glasses hitting each other, people calling waiters, etc. Let's see.

This is Sacha Rubin - No Balaio (1967), for London, featuring Sacha piano and not credited crooners, probably nightclub guests singing together with Sacha at the piano. In spite the music, this cover alone deserves to be at Loronix, truly beautiful and ahead of time. The repertoire features two big medleys. Tracks include:
