I was very curious to hear this record and I had the chance last week when Caetano Rodrigues contributions to Loronixers arrived here on the cage. I’m not disappointed, although the warm reception by critics when this LP was re-issued in CD ten years ago. Caetano’s version is the CD reissue, so you will have a noise free music this time. I miss the noise when hearing this album, I have been hearing only vinyl in the last weeks and a free of noise music sounds strange for me. A self-explanatory release.

This is Dom Um Romao – Hotmosphere (1976), for Pablo Records/Philips, arranged by Celia Vaz and featuring a constellation of renowned musicians from the 70’s. The first batucadas tracks alone worth the admission price, perhaps you will find much more, such as the participation of Sivuca on vocals and accordion, Dom Salvador on Piano and Claudio Roditti on trumpet. A complete personnel listing is available. Tracks include:
