Hello, good evening! Friends from Brazil will have a big weekend ahead, starting today with most of people already home to come back on Monday. Friends from Rio de Janeiro will probably come back on Tuesday, there is another local holiday in Rio de Janeiro, at least I heard about. These holidays have a direct effect on Loronix with friends leaving computers turned off to go away from the big cities. I like these holidays to *stay* at Rio de Janeiro, the city gets empty and better. Anyway, better talk about music and about this album, the first recorded by Conjunto Farroupilha in the 12-inch format, 1957. Let’s see.

This is Conjunto Farroupilha – Gauchos em HI-FI (1957), for Columbia, a very early album by the influential and unique Conjunto Farroupilha. Gauchos em HI-FI cannot be taken as the late Os Farroupilhas em HI-FI, recorded by the same Columbia in 1960. Gauchos em HI-FI features instrumental arrangements by Maestro Enrico Simonetti and vocal arrangements by Tasso Bangel. Tracks include:

01 – Noites Gaúchas (Paraguassu)
02 – Ratoeira (Paixão Cortes)
03 – Carreteiro (Caco Velho / Piratini)
04 – Seu Belendrengue (Paixão Cortes)
05 – Acalanto Gaúcho (Carmon Lewis)
06 – Pezinho (Barbosa Lessa / Paixão Cortes) Chimarrita Balão (Barbosa Lessa / Paixão Cortes)
