Hello, good evening! Let's start a new week with a very important artist that has not been released at Loronix since April 21, 2007, where I had the chance to show Rosinha de Valenca – Ao Vivo (1966), a fantastic collaboration sponsored by Caetano Rodrigues, a extremely hard to find album awaited by several friends. Rosinha de Valenca is a gifted musician, acknowledged by renowned people such like Baden Powell, Aloysio de Oliveira, Sergio Mendes, among others. She died recently, exactly four years ago in June 10, 2004. I would like to say thank you to Jorge Mello for making this album available to our community. Let’s see.This is Rosinha de Valenca – Cheiro de Mato (1976), for Odeon, featuring Rosinha de Valenca playing and singing a repertoire made mostly by her own compositions. It is important to say that Elifas Andreatto is responsible for creating the covers and inserts, truly awesome, especially the back cover, which is particularly beautiful. My pick for Loronix Preview Center is track 05 – Pedacinhos do Ceu (Waldyr Azevedo / Miguel Lima), featuring the cavaquinho of Mane do Cavaco, my personal friend who lives near my place. Mane do Cavaco is a great musician; he is always in action every Saturday playing choro with his group on a restaurant just behind my building. Cheiro de Mato brings a constellation of Brazilian musicians, as detailed on Personnel listing and inside the music files. Tracks include:

Zeca dear, it has been a long time since I've heard a recording that would touch me as deeply as Cheiro de Mato.
I wonder how no one else commented so far.
Thank you so much for this little pearl and I hope to see Rosinha again soon! ;)
Zeca,
Que coisa linda esse disco !!! Eu não conhecia o trabalho da Rosinha de Valença. Obrigado mais uma vez. Se for possível dá uma olhada nos primeiros discos da Elba Ramalho ( "Ave de Prata" de 1979 e "Capim do Vale" de 1980 ) eles são muito bons.
Zeca, sabe se a capa é do Elifas Andreato? Vi Rosinha uma vez acompanhando Nana Caymmi. No baixo, Luizão Alves. Um show pra nunca mais esquecer!
Beijos. Helô.
Helô,
Sim. A capa é do Andreato. Foi o que expliquei lá em cima, disse que gostava mais da contracapa do que a capa propriamente dita.
Abraços, zeca
Isso é que dá não ler as coisas direito... :)
Baixei esse disco quando voce publicou e ando escutando bastante, muito bom mesmo. Obrigado por mais essa perola Zeca.
Abracos,
Greg
I just bought the record from Brazil. This album is great! I'm glad you posted it. Great find, here in the U.S. Rosinha doesn't get the recognition she deserves.
Howdy Zecalouro,
Does Mané do Cavaco still play at the restaurant behind your house often? He is one of those incredible musicians who contribute so much to the sound of so many recordings but rarely get any recognition. Where is this restaurant? What nights does he play there? Do you by any chance have the "Martinho da Vila Apresenta Mané do Cavaco" album from 73? Thanks
abraço
Fory
Este é o melhor disco da Rosinha.
Inesquecível foi o show dela com o Macalé no Man do Rio.
