Cristina Buarque - Arrebem (1978)

Hello, good evening! Here we go on the first out of many contributions by Alvinho, a new friend with great collaborating and sharing spirit that had a lot of work to accomplish this vinyl transfer. By the way, a really nice work on a really nice album that I did not know the existence before Alvinho's contribution, which I want to make public my gratitude for making this album available to our community. Let's see.

This is Cristina Buarque - Arrebem (1978), for Continental, featuring Velha Guarda da Portela, Nelson Angelo, Francis Hime Nelson Angelo and Miucha as special guests backed by a constellation of Brazilian musicians. Cristina Buarque delivers nice Samba interpretations without loosing connection with the root Samba of Rio de Janeiro. Loronix Preview Center features my favorite, 01 - Golpe Errado (Geraldo Pereira / David Nasser / Cristovao de Alencar). Tracks include:

A voz pequena e macia é perfeita pra ser acompanhada por um time de primeiríssima.
E um repertório maravilhoso.
Cristina continua simples até hoje.
Sem frescuras. Fazendo backing vocal nos atuais shows do Paulinho.
1978 !
