Brazilian guitarist Sebastiao Tapajos, who in 1972 left an Afro-spiritual masterpiece with Birimbau master Pedro Dos Santos. This bossa nova album released the following year on Argentine great label Trova, which also released the aforementioned album, with a three-piece ensemble consisting of singer Maria Nazareth and vocalist/bassist Arnaldo Henriques. Starting with a bossa nova medley of five tunes that clocks in at just under four minutes, follewing popular killer samba "Sambachiana", "Samba Triste" with a nostalgic saudade vocal, exhilarating bossa number "Vida Burguesa", melancholy bossa "Triangulo" where two vocals interact, Baden Powell cover "Voy Por Ahi" with beautiful guitar and vocals. The entire album is full of places to listen. The technical guitars, sweet and cute vocals, and the laid back vocals of Arnaldo Henriques are woven together to create a superb album that has been called the best bossa nova album from Argentina. Produced by big Alfredo Radoszynski. Just wonderful!
72年にはビリンバウの名人Pedro Dos Santosとアフロスピリチュアル傑作を残しているブラジル人ギタリストSebastiao Tapajos。本作はその翌年リリースのシンガーMaria Nazareth、ヴォーカル兼ベーシストのArnaldo Henriquesの3人編成による、前述作のリリース元でもあるアルゼンチン名門Trovaから発表のボサノヴァアルバム。5曲を4分弱にまとめたボサノヴァメドレーに始まり、ハイライトの人気曲”Sambachiana”、郷愁たっぷりのサウダージなヴォーカルの”Samba Triste”、爽快なボッサ・ナンバー”Vida Burguesa”、二人のヴォーカルが掛け合う哀愁ボッサ”Triangulo”、美しいギターとヴォーカルが織り成すBaden Powellカバー”Voy Por Ahi”などなど全編聴き所満載。テクニカルなギター、甘くキュートなヴォーカル、脱力系のArnaldo Henriquesのヴォーカルが織り成すアルゼンチン産ボサノヴァ最高作との呼び声も納得の極上盤。プロデュースはAlfredo Radoszynski御代。もう素晴らしい～
