Thank you, Guigo. A samba lock and the samba pop of the 70s in particular are interesting for me. A lot of artists whom I do not yet know seem to exist. By the way, is the music of Wilson Simonal his original? I always like this music.

I think so, Kazuhiro-san. The song 'Sá Marina" was composed by Antonio Adolfo & Tiberio Gaspar and originally recorded by Wilson Simonal, in 1967. |

Nonato Buzar, a name in the samba-pop and samba-swing genres also experimented in the samba-jazz realm.
Here Elis Regina sings one of his jazzy songs. Buzar also added some jazz, funk and samba spices to movie soundtracks. Buzar also did bossa nova, here specifically for an early 1970s Brazilian soap-opera (and gave his voice too). |

Erlon Chaves (1933-1974) was a maestro who also mixed jazz and samba however with a discernible funk beat.
He also sang this one. Chaves signature is unmistakable and addictive. |

Before Carmen Miranda appeared around 1930, the great female name of popular music in Brazil was Aracy Cortes (1904-1985).

And then she came, like a hurricane.... Carmen Miranda (1909-1955).
Her first hit (1930). Another Carmen hit, from 1936, years before her USA era. One of her last "pure" Brazilian hits (1937). |

1939: War started in Europe and the USA knew that sooner or later they would be involved and that they would need raw material to keep moving the overwhelming war machine. Looking South they remembered their forgotten neighbors full of what they needed but where for several reasons people were not so touched by the American appeal... what to do? The Good Neighborhood Policy! Yes, we love you Latin Americans, give us those commodities by the not inflated 1938 prices and we'll take you to heavens!!!
1940: Carmen Miranda, the Brazilian bombshell, arrives in Hollywood as a pawn in this powerful game. Her international career was the poison that killed her. Brazilian critics and audience never pardoned her conversion to the Hollywood stardom and her character in the movies mixing samba, rumba, mambo - a salad of Latin rhythms. She thought she was doing fine but was actually being despised by her own people (even being born in Portugal, she felt herself 100% Brazilian). She fell on depression, later 'remedies' and then farewell to life with only 45 years old. Carmen working with Don Ameche on a 1941 Hollywood movie. Edited by Atkingani - 05 Nov 2011 at 11:20am |

Elis Regina will be 30 years after death next year. The time passes immediately. I did not yet have this album, but was at a loss whether I always bought it. I will examine it if it is a good album.
This album is popular in Japan. |
