Sebastiao Tapajos is a gifted musician. He has a classical background and started with his instrument at the age of nine, encouraged by his own father, being also his first teacher. His classical training and interest in popular music defined his style by a blend of the two schools, providing a transparent connection between the classical and popular. Sebastiao Tapajos has close to 50 albums recorded, in Brazil and outside. 

However, most of his discography is still unknown to me, his albums are hard to find, especially those recorded on vinyl and who never had a chance of a reprint on CD. Violao & Amigos is a great find.
Let’s see.

This is Sebastiao Tapajos – Violao & Amigos (1979), for RCA Victor, with the participation of Hermeto Pascoal, Paulo Moura and Mauricio Einhorn. I found this one a week ago, being sold for a ridiculous price. Since then, he has been constantly spinned. I was not able to accomplish an acceptable back cover restoration; being offered in the state it was found. I think this is a rather unknown record and I’m confident that our community will receive it with enthusiasm.

Here we go on an album that fits nicely in our Samba spirit. Perhaps the most Samba album recorded by Pery Ribeiro, following immediately the acclaimed Bronzes e Cristais. This post is dedicated to Patricia Perez Prado, one of the greatest Pery Ribeiro enthusiasts at Loronix, owner and maintainer of Pery Ribeiro’s Community at Orkut. Let’s see.

This is Pery Ribeiro – Alvorada (1979), for Copacabana, as already explained, Alvorada has a strong Samba accent, featuring arrangements by Waltel Branco, Sivuca, Mauricio Einhorn, Laercio de Freitas, among others. I hope Loronix friends enjoy this album, as Patricia will certainly do.
