Raul de Souza - Viva Volta (1986)

Hello, good evening! In spite of a flu making my eyes hurt and feeling pain all over my feathers, I'm having a really nice evening with another non-identified traffic increase of new people to Loronix. We had an average of four unique visitors per minutes on peak hours, which are much for January, a month used by many friends for vacation. That's why I'm making a solid start this Monday, sharing a never released album of a favorite artist of many friends, the legendary Brazilian trombonist Raul de Souza, also known as Raulzinho. Let's see.

This is Raul de Souza - Viva Volta (1986), for Top Tape, recorded live at Inverno & Verao nightclub, Sao Paulo, February 1986. Perhaps this is a widely unknown Raulzinho album, found last week while browsing the always surprising R$ 1.00 section of a used vinyl store in Copacabana. Raulzinho performs a repertoire of his own compositions and Brazilian standards from Milton Nascimento, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Noel Rosa, Vinicius de Moraes and Joao Bosco. Personnel listing is available bellow and includes the participation of Guilherme Vergueiro as special guest on Feitio de Oracao. Tracks include:
