Nilo Sergio, Sua Orquestra e Vozes - Isto e Romance (1962)

Hello, good evening! This is considered by many the best album released by Nilo Sérgio, an important figure in Brazilian popular music. Singer and composer, Nilo Sergio made history as the creator of an independent record label that was always ahead of its time, the legendary Musidisc. This really nice record company released important artists; Trio Surdina is a perfect example. Musidisc was also the record label that started and frequently used artists from other labels hidden by fake names and even artists under contract with Musidisc using English names as a marketing strategy, such like Bob Fleming, the fake name used by Moacyr Silva and Zito Righi to release several blockbusters at Musidisc. Let's see.

This is Nilo Sergio, Sua Orquestra e Vozes - Isto e Romance (1962), for Musidisc, featuring the not credited participation of Ed Lincoln as an organist and probably a maestro in charge of instrumental and voice arrangements. I had a nice week and I hope we will have together a special weekend with our family and friends. I'm leaving and stay tuned for another Brazilian music weekend, probably a "Samba Saturday", which is something still requested by many friends. Tracks include:
