I like Francis Hime, although I’m not versed on his vast discography, being only a careful listener of the albums available at Loronix, Francis Hime – Francis Hime (1973), a masterpiece and Francis Hime – Se Porem Fosse Portanto (1978). Francis Hime is a gifted musician, arranger, composer and singer and uses to deliver all this elements on his albums, which is his strength.

This is Francis Hime – Sonho de Moco (1981), for Som Livre, featuring the very special guest Maria Hime, the vocal group Boca Livre and Milton Nascimento. Francis Hime debut LP is really hard to beat, but this one really worth the attention.

Personnel listing features a constellation of musicians, including Wilson das Neves, Jacques Morellenbaun, Nelson Angelo, Novelli, Chico Batera, Ed Maciel, Neco, Dino 7 Cordas, Formiga, Marcio Montarroyos, Maurilio da Silva Santos, Robertinho Silva, Oberdan, Luiz Alves, among many others. I’m asking the excellent Discos do Brasil for help with personnel listing.

Tracks include:

01 – A Tarde (Francis Hime / Olivia Hime)
02 – Lua de Cetim (Francis Hime / Olivia Hime) - Maria Hime
03 – Patuscada (Francis Hime / Cacaso) - Boca Livre
04 – Luar (Francis Hime / Olivia Hime)
05 – Hora e Lugar (Francis Hime / Cacaso)
06 – Luis (Francis Hime / Nelson Ângelo)
07 – Homem Feito (Francis Hime / Milton Nascimento) - Milton Nascimento
08 – Amor Barato (Francis Hime / Chico Buarque)
09 – Doce Vida (Francis Hime / Toquinho)
10 – O Farol (Francis Hime / Milton Nascimento)
11 – Cachoeira (Francis Hime)
12 – Sonho de Moço (Francis Hime / Milton Nascimento)

Hello,
I’ve got a random comment and one random question. First, I knew very little about Brazilian music before stumbling onto your blog a few months ago. I’ve been an ardent follower ever since. You’ve introduced me to some beautiful new music and I’m much appreciative. Second, I was looking at Discos do Brasil and, just wondering, what is the song that plays as their website opens??
Thanks,
Jon

I can file and track down every request and recommendation made by Loronixers, but seems to be imposible so far to associate the requests with requesters, specially one so hard to track down such as this nice LP with the participation of several Brazilian starts recorded for the label MPS/Basf in 1966, Germany.

The whole story is so far unknow, but this studio record has together on the set Chico Batera, Dom Salvador, Edu Lobo, J.T. Meirelles, Jorge Arena, Rosinha de Valenca, Rubens Bassini and Sylvia Telles. Some websites reports a not credited participation of Baden Powell, which is something to be checked. Who has the whole story about this? If any friend has additional info, please write us on comments. Tracks will be given with detailed participation on each track.

This studio record was produced by Joachim-Ernst Berendt for MPS records in Germany. Berendt handpicked all artists himself in Rio de Janeiro for a tour in Germany and Switzerland. During the tour the album was recorded in Germany. There is also a 50 Minute live footage aired on German TV with the same lineup but different tunes. Baden Powell was not involved in this project. In the 90`s a CD was compiled by Universal Germany with this album and Baden Powell`s “Images on Guitar”

Nana Caymmi – Nana (1977)

.

Originalmente postado no Loronix em 11 de fevereiro 2008.
Comentários originais incluídos.
Bonus: Arquivo em FLAC.

I was googling something that I cannot remember this week when I found an article written by Aramis Millarch in 1977 at the great Tabloide Digital. Millarch said that Nana Caymmi was among the top five Brazilian singer and ironically she was widely unknown by the audience in Brazil. Immediately, I went to Loronix to Find It Nana Caymmi and I got surprised when Find It returned only one album, made available almost two years ago. It is necessary to bring Nana Caymmi to Loronix first page.
Let’s see.

This is Nana Caymmi – Nana (1977), for RCA Victor, featuring Joao Donato, Dori Caymmi, Durval Ferreira (diretor criativo) and Dorival Caymmmi as special guest on track 02 – Milagre. This is a beauty of an album recorded by a great singer with a great team of musicians. Most of these tunes are well known by Nana Caymmi and other artist’s performances with my highlights on 02 – Milagre, 05 – Falam de Mim, 08 – Cais and 09 – Se Queres Saber, which is the track listed at Loronix Preview Center.

Tracks include:

Personnel

Dori Caymmi
(arrangements, violao)

 Joao Donato
(piano)

 Ivan Lins
(piano, 11)

 Toninho Horta
(violao, 01)

 Novelli
(piano, 08)

 Luiz Alves
(bass)

 Robertinho Silva
(drums)

 Chico Batera, Ariovaldo
(percussion)

 Dorival Caymmi
(voice, 02)

Track List

01 – Dona Olimpia (Toninho Horta / Ronaldo Bastos)
02 – Milagre (Dorival Caymmi) with Dorival Caymmi
03 – Perdoa Meu Amor (Georges Moran / J. G. de Araújo Jorge)
04 – O Que Se Sabe de Cor (Fernando Leporace)
05 – Falam de Mim (Noel Rosa de Oliveira / Eden Silva / Aníbal Silva)
06 – Soneto à Mamá (Joan Manuel Serrat)
07 – Fingidor (Sueli Costa)
08 – Cais (Milton Nascimento / Ronaldo Bastos)

Sergio Mendes – Quiet Nights (1963)

.
.
Originalmente postado no Loronix em 13 de setembro 2007.
Comentários originais incluídos.

This is a special repost of one of the greatest accomplishes of Loronix. It is also a tribute to our friend Caetano Rodrigues, a great friend of mine that I could only have the chance to meet through our community. For those who does not know who is Caetano Rodrigues, he is just the greatest Bossa Nova LP collector in Brazil, blessing Loronix on an on-going basis with albums from his personal collection.
I said before and I want to say it again, Caetano’s contribution to our community is such like a once in a lifetime opportunity and this post is to make people understand – specially the new Loronixers – why Caetano is so important to Loronix by making his whole collection available to us to the love he has to the music from Brazil and the great sympath to our website.

This is Sergio Mendes – Quiet Nights (1968), for Philips, one of the rarest Bossa Nova albums, never made available in CD. As I said, Quiet Night is being reposted to homage Caetano and also to address major improvements cover artworks, MP3 files with higher bitrate and the now popular FLAC looseless alternative. I’m keeping original post information adding personnel info, which is still uncertain after months.

Tracks include:

Personnel

Sergio Mendes
(piano)

David Pike
(vibes)

Eddie Higgins
(vibes on Insensatez)

unknown
(guitar)

Sebastiao Neto
(bass)

Chico Batera or Edison Machado
(drums)

I decided to make a chronological approach showing excerpts from conversations made until this publishing, as follows:

The first citation from Bossanov, the starter of this post:
August, 28th, 2006 – “Do you have some of the most mysterious Sergio opus – LP Quiet Nights (Philips, 1967 in my opinion or 1963 as mighty www.allmusic.com insist?)?”

Frank Oliver Hellmann introduces the mysteries that surrounds this release:

August, 29th, 2006 – “The Quiet Nights album was recorded 1963 or 1964 in USA and was released by Philips not before 1967, after the success of Brazil 66. It has Dave Pike on vibes, Tiao Neto on bass and Chico Batera on drums. It was produced by Eddie Higgins who replaces Pike on one track. The guitar player is not known, but possibly it is Rosinha de Valenca. I have the original LP, this is a great record (real instrumental Bossa Nova) and the only one which is not reissued in CD yet.” zecalouro’s note: I decided to do not push our friend Oliver to get the LP, just to keep the discussion live!

Caetano Rodrigues shows a real excitement about Quiet Nights:

“This LP was not released in Brazil and was recorded in the USA, February, 1963, just before the anthological Carnegie Hall Show. This LP is FANTASTIC with Sergio backed up by Dave Pike. Eddie Higgins was invited by Dave Pike to play vibes on Insensatez, since Dave was unfamiliar with the harmony. The bass player was Tiao Neto, drumming is credited to Chico Batera. I spoke with Chico Batera to bring more clarification about this LP and Chico said that he did take part at the recording session and is quite sure that Edison Machado did it. The guitar player is still unknown. Hearing the acoustic guitar, it seems that Oscar Castro Neves or even Antonio Carlos Jobim would be playing.”

zecalouro reads today at BJBear71, complimentary information provided by Frank Oliver:

“Pianist Eddie Higgins was working in the recording booth at this session. Dave Pike had been playing vibes during the session but was unfamiliar with the melody for “Insensatez.” The group was running out of studio time, so Higgins started the tape and ran out into the studio and played vibes on this one track. The group was Sergio Mendes’ Brasil ’65. Another track in the album, “Abraco a Sergio,” was composed by Higgins and played by Mendes. The guitar player is unknown but it might be Rosinha de Valenca who was working with Mendes’ Brasil 65. The record was issued in 1967, but was recorded November 1964 or 1965. An interesting note about the session is that Mendes was brought in to record some background music for the Seeburg Company and was VERY upset when Philips put it out later as an album. That was not supposed to happen.”

Take your own conclusions. Some mysteries are still to be revealed. Take your time to discuss at Loronix Forum with our peers about this LP. Together, we can have all the answers revealed.

Before you run away to get the LP, please send your virtual compliments to Caetano Rodrigues who provided this record without noticing, just reading those initial comments from Bossanov and Frank Oliver. Thanks Caetano for another strike, our community should acclaim Quiet Nights.

Track List

01 – Desafinado (Tom Jobim / Newton Mendonça)
02 – One Note Samba (Samba de Uma Nota Só) (Tom Jobim / Newton Mendonça)

Corcovado (aka. Quiet Nights) is one of my all time favorite songs. Although I can’t think of a song Jobim wrote that I don’t like.
This looks really fun. I just downloaded it. I’ve got to go listen to it right away.
Thanks.

Hi, Zeca!
In reality not Bossanovadreamer (nice guy from Germany), but me Bossanov (poor guy from Russia) was real “father” of this post (see my comment from 28 september, starting all the history)
So, it’s really misterious record!
My another wish was the Bill Perkins “Bossanova wis strings attached” from Liberty. Some tracks from this record was in Capitol compilations, like “Bossanovaville” and this is great music, comparable with Getz bossa LPs.
Sincerely Bossanov

Hi, Zeca!
Again about Sergio Mendes’s “Quiet Nights”.
According to Ruppli’s discography “The Mercury Labels – A Discography” by Ruppli and Novitsky, Greenwood Press, 1993 (with the info about Personnel/recorded date/master numbers ) this record was made in US, Chicago, Universal Recording: ca. November 1967.
Abraço!

Do you know about Paradise Masters CD releases (Bwana, Turma de Balanco, etc.)? They are great guys. I’ll try to buy something from hmv.co.jp. Ironically, but this Japanese site is the best way to buy Brazilian music for me, Moscow guy. It’s really global world.

The date November 1967 is wrong. In 1967 Mendes was recording with Brasil 66, when you here this recording it clearly sounds like 1963/1964. I got my informations about the recording from the discographer of Eddie Higgins who spoke directly to Eddie Higgins. These are the things Eddie remembers about the session. If a good looking woman like Rosinha de Valenca or Jobim himself plays the guitar he would remember this. Perhaps Oscar Castro-Neves is the right choice.
The man who must know all these things is Sergio Mendes himself. Unfortunaly I didn´t know his e-mail address.

bjbear71 said…
Yes, this would not be the first time I have come across a mistake in a print discography book, as great as Ruppli’s work is. Also, why would a Philips label recording be listed in a Mercury discography?! This makes no sense to me, they are totally unrelated labels back then in the 1960s. The *only* way this could have been recorded in 1967 is if Sergio stilled owed Phillips an album under previous contractual obligations and therefore was bound to record it to fulfill that obligation. Sergio was well into recording for A&M in 1967…

Thank you Caetano!
Thank you Zeca!
Now I will unveil the great mystery of who is the guitarist.
Actually, it is not a mystery at all, if you are a guitarist who has listened to as much brazilian music as I have.
This is a ‘slam dunk’ – Oscar Castro-Neves.
I saw him a couple of weeks ago in San Francisco, before I read this blog, unfortunately, or I would have asked him to confirm this point.
However, simply listen to the tracks – especially ‘O Peixe’ (intro) or ‘Corcovado’, etc. – and then listen to any of Oscar Castro-Neves documented recordings carefully.
Perhaps the most identifying feature of Oscar’s playing his his damping technique – this, to me, is unmistakable – Rosinha de Valenca, Baden Powell, etc. have a different sound. Oscar is very, very ‘tight’ in the way he damps strings in between chords.
Also, Oscar’s chord voicings are quite characteristic and his rhythm is absolutely unmistakable.
So you have it!
Thanks again,

It is a great concert and they have the accompaniment of top-notch musicians. Tracks could be identified with one exception, the last one.

Song nr 4 – isn’t It “Bottom Heat” from “Sweet Lucy”
iRod

Pablo on Sunday, 05 August, 2007
The track 4 is a 2in 1, the first song seems to me, a version of UMBABARAUMBA de Jorge Ben, the other one, who knows; but with a jazzy feeling, I think that the track 4 is a forgettable one.

Chico Batera – Ritmo (1979)

.

Originalmente postado no Loronix em 03 de agosto 2007.
Comentários originais incluídos.

Let’s keep yesterday’s pace, when I released to Loronixers the anthological first album recorded by Banda Black Rio as the second post of the day. We are making the same with this second post, showing the first album of a very important musician, listed on several albums available at Loronix. Let’s see.

This is Chico Batera – Ritmo (1979), for Som Livre. Chico Batera debut LP with several special guests. When I took this album for a first hearing, I was ready to hear something very different, such like Brazilian Jazz or Samba. However, Chico Batera and his guests deliver something very different. Ritmo is a great Funky album with vocals, guitars, distortion, etc. really surprising. I don’t have any experience with further Chico Batera solo albums, but I think this session is one of a kind.

Tracks include:

Personnel:

Chico Batera
(arrangements, drums)

Sérgio Dias
(from Os Mutantes)
(guitar)

Tavinho Bonfa
(violao)

Robertinho de Recife
(guitar)

Amelinha
(vocals)

Terezinha de Jesus
(?)

Lee Marcucci
(bass)

and the special guests Fagner, Dom Beto, Carlos Dafe, Joao Bosco, and others…

Sensacional. Na época que este disco saiu o Brasil tinha futuro.

Zeca,
How came you could expect to listen to Brazilian Jazz or Samba in an album that has this guys: Sérgio Dias (from Os Mutantes) and Robertinho do Recife, two of the best rock guitarists in Brazil?
Hehe, I believe these guys were “bad” influence to Chico Batera and that’s why there’s the distortion and all… jeje
I confess that I did not plan to download this album right now, it almost went to my future list… but when I saw these guys I mention, especially Sérgio Dias, I just have to download it…
Thanks for sharing it. I never heard anything by Sérgio Dias except all of his Os Mutantes albums and his solo career.
Take care, tudo de bom pra você!
Marcos
