Os Demonios da Garoa - Sai de Mim, Saudade (1971)

Hello, good evening! Yesterday, I was sick, in the day before I was busy, in the other day I was bored, but today I feel GREAT, on a really good shape to share the wonderful music from Brazil to our community. My will today is to show four albums instead of the usual two or three and each one different from the other, starting with this one, courtesy of JOAO-SP, which is providing us the chance to know the Samba made in Sao Paulo, very different from the one we are used to hear from Rio de Janeiro artists. Let's see.

This is Os Demonios da Garoa - Sai de Mim Saudade (1971), for Continental, the first album released at Loronix of this very important vocal and instrumental Samba group, active since the early 40's until today, with a recording career that spans decades with more than 200 albums recorded on every possible format, including a recent released DVD. Sai de Mim Saudade never had a CD reissue and brings some of the most successful songs performed by Os Demonios da Garoa. I'm curious how Loronixers will feedback these first Samba releases from Sao Paulo sent by JOAO-SP. Tracks include:

01 - Sai de Mim Saudade (Geraldo Nunes / Victor)
02 - Quatro Velas (Sereno / Ubaldo Silva)
03 - Ontem Hoje e Sempre (Aloísio Figueiredo / Mário Aguinaldo / José Guimarães)
04 - Aquarela Amazônica (Belmiro Barrela)
05 - Duplicatas (Victor Simão / J. Nunes)
06 - Izidora (Arnaldo Rosa / Arthur Bernardo)
07 - Não Faço Fé Contigo (J. B. da Silva "Sinhô")
08 - Canoa Furada (Aloísio Figueiredo / José Guimarães)
09 - No Tempo de Carlito (Victor Simão)
10 - Isto É São Paulo (Kazinho)
11 - Maloca dos Meus Amores (Canarinho)
12 - Bê-a-bá (Tânio Jairo)
