Bola Sete e Seu Conjunto - Aqui Esta o Bola Sete (1957)

Hello, good evening! I bought a new scanner; actually, the community bought it via donations to Paypal and the Brazilian alternative Pagseguro. I made some calculations; each album required eight scans, four passes on each side. Perhaps the old scanner did the job nicely, the load was huge, it was almost 4,000 (four thousand) scan in approximately 15 months. Anyway, the bottom-line is that nothing is stopping me now. And to celebrate, it is time to present another nice contribution made by Jorge Mello, featuring a legendary Brazilian musician. Let’s see.

This is Bola Sete e Seu Conjunto – Aqui Esta o Bola Sete (1957), for Odeon, which is Bola Sete debut LP in the Para Dancar style. With the help of Jorge Mello, we are gradually completing Bola Sete discography in his early yearly years. And there is more to come since all these albums never had a chance to be reissued in CD. Bola Sete plays electric guitar renditions of Brazilian standards, Bolero and two compositions by his own. Odeon did not credit musicians in this session. Tracks include:

01 - Aquarela do Brasil (Ary Barroso)
02 - Rico Vacilon (Rosendo Ruiz)
03 - Copacabana (João de Barro / Alberto Ribeiro)
04 - Na Baixa do Sapateiro (Ary Barroso)
05 - Solamente Una Vez (Agustin Lara)
06 - Morena Boca de Ouro (Ary Barroso)
07 - Baccará (Bola Sete)
08 - Molambo (Jaime Florence "Meira" / Augusto Mesquita)
09 - No Rancho Fundo (Ary Barroso / Lamartine Babo)
10 - Remexendo (Radamés Gnattali)
11 - Czardas (V. Monti)
12 - Por Um Amor (Bola Sete)

Zeca,
Eu entrei no "Happyhour" ( já sou cadastrado ) para baixar o disco do Bola Sete, mas sem querer eu saí da tela sem dar "logoff" e agora não consigo mais entrar pois não aparece mais os campos para "login". Você pode me ajudar ?

Guilherme, você terá que ir até ao rodapé da página e lá em baixo no lado direito clicar no link "reset module status".

Isso é suficiente para ele reposicionar todos os módulos e deixar o site como posicionado originalmente.

Qualquer dúvida, entre em contato.

Abraços, zeca
