Link original: Luiz Eca & Sagrada Familia – Onda Nova do Brasil (1970)
Publicado em: Sunday, February 25, 2007 by zecalouro
Here comes Caetano again with another of those nice and challenging LPs. This time featuring one of Loronix favorites, Luiz Eca, accompanied by a giant group of top-notch Brazilian musicians. This LP was recorded in 1970, Brazil and besides this info and personnel listing, everything else is uncertain.
This is Luiz Eca & Sagrada Familia – Onda Nova do Brasil (1970), for Lazarus, Mexico (1978). It is amazing that this LP, recorded in Rio de Janeiro, 1970, featuring large and wonderful personnel on the set was release eight years after recorded. I spoke with Caetano about this gap, but we could not make any further research on this. I invite you to have a try and bring more info; this LP is very good and ahead of its time, full of nice experiments. Tracks include:
(guitar, arrangements, bass and vocals)
Claudio Roditi
(trumpet, vocals)
Bill Voguel
(trumpet, vocal and arrangements)
Zeca
(trombone)
Ion Muniz
(sax tenor)

An interesting story about the sax player in this group, Ion Muniz.
Many years ago during one of our trips to Rio, a friend at the time, the drummer Deduca deFonseca, knew my wife and I were going to Rio and knew of my love for Bossa. He told us to look up his friend Ion Muniz and we went to some very small jazz club where Ion and a quartet were playing. When we came in they were playing a set that was all modern jazz. After the set I introduced myself to Ion and gave him Deduca’s regards. He sat at the table with my wife and me. My wife told him that his playing was great but that it was modern jazz which she was used to in the US. Would he please play Bossa Nova. He said that they were there to play jazz but as a favor to us would play some Bossa Nova and he did. Seems like an eternity ago.

Wild! I love it. Reminds me a little of something like Antônio Adolfo’s Brazuca. “Please garçom,” one of the two songs listed on the cover as “uncredited,” is by Joyce, and what sounds like a much later version of it is one of the bonus songs on the reissue of her first LP.
For what it’s worth, I found this from the biography section of Joyce’s website: “Graduou-se em Jornalismo pela PUC-Rio em 1970. No mesmo ano fez parte do grupo Sagrada Familia, liderado por Luiz Eça, que ficou em temporada de dois meses no México, no Hotel Camino Real. Ao retornar da turnê, casou-se com o compositor mineiro Nelson Angelo, também integrante do grupo.”

Very nice to see this album at Loronix- I only knew that it is very very rare and expensive on vinil-I spoke with Claudinho some weeks ago after concert when he was on tour here in Geramny with the Klaus Ignatzek Trio.They played Jazz and some bossas. Claudinho is a very nice guy-We spoke about Whatmusic and the Ed Lincoln album he played as guest-
P.s Friend Jazzman very nice your story .
Thanks to Zeca and Caetano

Duduka da Fonseca, the great drummer, is living in new york (he maried Maucha Adnet who was one of the vocalists of Jobim´s Banda Nova). Last year he recorded as the leader of a group a very good CD of jazz-samba. He gave me a signed one that now is a special item of my humble colection).

Joyce relata histórias do grupo Sagrada Família no seu livro “Fotografei Você na minha Rolleyflex”, 1997. Reproduzo alguns trechos:
“Em 1970,… o apartamento de Luizinho Eça, no final do Leblon, era um laboratório de sons e experiências de todos os tipos. Conviviam ali várias gerações de músicos de diversos estilos, linguagens, idades e sexos….A sala era pequena, quase toda tomada pelo piano de cauda inteira, ao redor do qual a gente se distribuía, tendo diariamente master classes sem que nos déssemos conta.”
“Luizinho foi convidado por um empresário mexicano a levar sua banda para uma temporada no país. O Tamba, seu grupo de anos se desfizera. O empresário pensara numa formação ao estilo Sérgio Mendes, com cantoras e uma base instrumental entre a bossa-nova e o pop. Mas Luizinho pensava grande, e armou uma banda com nada menos que treze elementos, todos membros de sua tribo de aprendizes.”
Recomendo o livro, pois além de grande compositora, cantora e violonista, Joyce escreve muito bem(ela também é jornalista).

I downloaded this right after you posted it and forgot to mention how much I love it, especially the first song. If this is challenging, then I want plenty more challenges!
