This is Clara Nunes - Clara Nunes (1971), for Odeon, a transitional album from the early Clara Nunes Bossa Nova years to the style where she definitively shines as one of the greatest Brazilian Samba interpreters ever. This self-titled album brings several well known Clara Nunes tunes and also landmarks the first out of several participations of Maestro Lindolpho Gaya as Musical Director. Maestros Orlando Silveira, Nelsinho, Lindolpho Gaya and Jose Roberto deliver arrangers on individual tracks; unfortunately, Odeon did not credit musicians. Tracks include:
