Hello, Good Evening! Wooow! Sorry, I could not control my enthusiasm when I opened the new Caetano Rodrigues packaged and found this fantastic album. My first contact was at Caetano’s place in Sao Paulo. I look to Caetano and asked: “Can I get someday to Loronix?” and he said “Yes!!”. Since then it has been more than a month until the arrival today. I decided to make it first and I hope you get the same good feelings when hearing this fantastic album, like I had this afternoon.

This is Maciel – Maciel Toca, Voce Danca (1960), for Polydor. Maciel cannot be taken as Ed Maciel, which is also a trombonist. Maciel has many years of collaboration to Brazilian music; being also a Classical musician, member of Orquestra Sinfonica do Teatro Municipal do Rio de Janeiro.

Ao contrário do que diz o Zeca, acredito que este Maciel é, sim,  o Ed Maciel, também conhecido como Edmundo Maciel - http://musicosdobrasil.com.br/ed-maciel . Seu irmão mais novo, Edson Maciel, também trombonista, seguia uma linha mais jazzista - http://musicosdobrasil.com.br/edson-maciel e parece não ter nenhum disco solo.

Hello, Good Evening! I was desperately waiting for this moment to arrive, Saturday night. From now on, no planes flying and making noise on top of my head. Since Tuesday, I was living with a constant and extremely annoying noise of several small planes practicing flights over my window for a competition today, some sort of plane racing. They were small planes; zeca went nuts really angry with them. I thought he thinks they are birds like him. They should not allow this kind of thing in the city. That noise was really a strike on any nervous system. Anyway, I think this process is now over and I kept my sanity.

Let’s start the picks of this Saturday making a lot of noise with Ed Maciel e Sua Orquestra.

This is Ed Maciel e Sua Orquestra – Volume 4 (1967), for London, essentially, music for dancing, powered up by orchestra a great brass section and some Hammond B3 organ in the background. Ed Maciel released eight volumes of this self-titled orchestra series and this is the first one released here at Loronix. Tracks include:

01 – L’important C’est La Rose (Gilbert Bécaud / L. Amade)
02 – Celebration (B. Martin / P. Coucter)
03 – Can’t Take My Eyes Off You (B. Crewe / B. Gaudio)
04 – The Happening (E. Holland / B. Holland / Dozler / De Vol)
05 – Western Union (M. Raben / N. Ezell / J. Durrill)
06 – Barbarella (J. T. Meirelles)
07 – There’s a Kind Of Hush (L. Reed / G. Stephens)
08 – C’era Un Ragazzo Che Come Me Amava I Beatles e I Rolling Stones (Luisini / Migliacci)
09 – No Milk Today (G. Gouldman)
10 – A Little Bit Me a Little Bit You (N. Diamond)
