We spoke at Sao Paulo vinyl fair update post about the legendary Musidisc recording company. I cannot remember when or where, but I heard someone saying how great this label was and how many albums were released at Musidisc and the subsidiaries. This is another good example; take a look at this cover artwork, simply amazing for the early 60’s, taking the idea of Copacabana sidewalk mosaic. Let’s see what we have inside.

This is Os 7 Velhinhos – Bossa Nova (no date), for Musidisc. Except personnel, little is known about this LP, even the release date is missing. Bossa Nova (the album) can be easily please the fans of instrumental music and vocals, there are lyrics on tunes but the instrumental set and musicians, which includes maestros Formiga, Carioca and Nelsinho with Albel Ferreira, Jose Meneses, Chiquinho do Acordeon and others, is what I appreciate most at this release. Tracks include:

Personnel
Maestro Carioca
Abel Ferreira
Jose Meneses
Maestro Nelsinho
Orlando Trinca
Maestro Formiga
Pedro Vidal
Jose Americo
Chiquinho do Acordeon
