The last challenge winner is Outrasbossas! He made it, Conjunto Vocal Farroupilha is that group and this album brings at the back cover that photo. By the way, he was a serious candidate to win that challenge. Outrasbossas is an expert on Brazilian music from the 50′s and even previous decades, his blog is a reference and you will find several wonders from that time.

This is the second LP from the last set of 10-inch contributions and it is probably the one that I like most, featuring Conjunto Vocal Farroupilha and their first album, recorded in 1953. I could only identify Conjunto Vocal Farroupilha today, since the cover does not bring the main performer name, only the album title. Let’s see.

This is Conjunto Vocal Farroupilha – Gaucho (1953), for Radio, featuring arrangements by Aldo Taranto. Lead by Tasso Bangel, Conjunto Vocal Farroupilha started in 1948 at Radio Farroupilha, a radio station in the city of Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. Later, they removed the Vocal from the group name and released more than 15 albums on a recording career that spanned three decades.

Tracks include:

01 – Balaio (Barbosa Lessa / Paixão Cortes)
02 – Tatú (Barbosa Lessa / Paixão Cortes)
03 – Negrinho do Pastoreio (Barbosa Lessa)
04 – Me Dá Um Mate (Barbosa Lessa)
05 – Chirimindé (Barbosa Lessa / Paixão Cortes)
06 – Amargo (A. Amábile / Lupicínio Rodrigues)
07 – Carreteiro (Barbosa Lessa)
08 – Rancheira da Carreirinha (Barbosa Lessa)
