Noite Ilustrada - Noite Ilustrada (1969)

Here we go on our first Loronix Samba Saturday of 2008, showing an artist that deserves a better approach at Loronix, the legendary Brazilian singer Mario de Souza Marques Filho, widely known as Noite Ilustrada, a very important singer with a recording career that spans decades. Noite Ilustrada debut LP is already available at Loronix and has one of the nicest covers I have ever seen, just follow this link, here. Let's see.

This is Noite Ilustrada - Noite Ilustrada (1969), for Continental, featuring orchestra accompaniement with not credited Maestro, arranger and musicians. Mario de Souza Marques Filho received the artistic name of Noite Ilustrada in his first performance as an artist when the show host, Ze Trindade, forgot his name and took from Noite Ilustrada paints the magazine Noite Ilustrada and had the idea of announce the new singer as Noite Ilustrada.
