Hello, good evening! I’m late for today’s post, but it is for a very good reason. Loronix page load time was increasing daily and some friends were even with no access to Loronix. It was a critical situation, fixed by the replacement of CBox, also known as Quadradinho, for another tagboard solution. Cbox was the root cause of the problem. You should feel the difference while reading this message.

Anyway, I’m really tired and this is not the best situation to write this important post, kindly made available by the great Jorge Mello. This album was recorded by Baden Powell in Paris, just after the excellent series of three albums called Baden Powell Quartet Volumes 1, 2 and 3. This album does not have a title and you need to take it on your hands to read the back cover and understands that Baden Powell makes a tribute album for two great musicians with a strong influence of Baden’s career, which are Pixinguinha and the legendary Garoto. Baden Powell performs four renditions of each one and completes the repertoire with two compositions by his own. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell – Baden Powell (1971), for Barclay, a tribute to Pixinguinha and Garoto, with Baden performing and singing with one of his favorite’s divas, Jeanine de Waleyne. Baden Powell is an awesome musician and there is something that really makes him different from all others, he puts passion on everything and this makes the different, especially on these renditions of two other geniuses. We should say thank you to Jorge Mello for this really nice album. Tracks include:

Publicado em: Wednesday, July 30, 2008 by zecalouro

What a day! I’m tired and my eyes hurt, but I cannot finish this great day without music at Loronix. I’m tired and I need to be really straightforward this time. This is Baden Powell and Paulo Cesar Pinheiro performing their compositions with a vocal group called Os Cantores da Lapinha, which is probably a temporary group assembled only for this recording session. By the way, another nice Jorge Mello’s contribution, waited for many friends at Loronix. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell e Paulo Cesar Pinheiro – As Musicas de Baden Powell e Paulo Cesar Pinheiro | Os Cantores da Lapinha (1970), for Elenco. Os Cantores da Lapinha is a solid Samba LP with Baden Powell singing. You will not find instrumental tracks. My highlight goes to 07 – Falei e Disse (Baden Powell / Paulo Cesar Pinheiro), which is also my choice to Loronix Preview Center. Tracks include:

01 – Aviso aos Navegantes (Baden Powell / Paulo Cesar Pinheiro)
02 – Quaquaraquaqua (Vou Deitar e Rolar) (Baden Powell / Paulo Cesar Pinheiro)
03 – Refem da Solidao (Baden Powell / Paulo Cesar Pinheiro)

Baden Powell – Estudos (1971)

Publicado em: Tuesday, April 08, 2008 by zecalouro

Hello, good evening! Until the end of the old posts recovery task I will be making only a single post daily. I believed this new approach would allow more time to recovery activities, but a single post needs to be planned and chosen with dedication. I am sure that Baden Powell and Estudos, one of its most praised albums is a flawless and high quality release. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell – Estudos (1971), for Elenco, featuring Baden Powell guitar with accompaniment of Alfredo Bessa percussion. Estudos is a really wonderful album; it is dense, soulful, providing new experiences no matter how many times you take it for a spin. Once again, I’m gathering Brazil-on-guitar Estudos review, one of the greatest musician tribute websites available at the internet, no matter what kind of music. Tracks include:

BrazilOnGuitar says: One of Baden Powell’s most popular records does not reveal its recording date. Even extensive research could not answer our questions. Estudos is one of his most experimental studio recordings and very well known. BP recorded only together with the percussionist Alfredo Bessa. Partly he over-dubbed guitar, bass and percussion, now and then he uses sound effects. Some compositions already show harmonies of Apaixonado. Hardly any other record contains so many solo pieces that became guitarist’s standard repertoire quickly. It remains unknown if the material was originally intended for the planned solo record to be done in December 1971.

Digitalisation of the vinyl record: the first German CD-release from 1990 (821 855-2) is in AAD and comes closest to the original sound of the LP, even if partly the sound is too low. The German CD sounds like an unplayed vinyl record without noise. The re-release from 2003 removed the sound differences and has a carefully revised sound. The result is good, but we personally prefer the version from 1990. We thank Robert G. (Germany) for his translation and Susumu san for his cover.

PS.: I’m making available the first Elenco vinyl issue. I hope you approve my transfer!

Baden Powell – Tempo Feliz (1966)

Link original: Baden Powell – Tempo Feliz (1966)
Publicado em: Monday, February 25, 2008 by zecalouro

I think there is a small and restricted clubs to albums that brings something very different from all others. I don’t know exactly what these albums have to access this small club, but it is easy to identify these albums when you take one for a hearing. Perhaps a matter of feeling, passion, or some kind of magic that happens in the recoding session, leaving a mark on the music. Tempo Feliz was recorded by Baden Powell and Mauricio Einhorn in only two days, 24 and 25 January 1966 and you should believe me that you are in front of a member of this selected club of albums. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell – Tempo Feliz (1966), for Forma, a repost, now taken from my original Forma first issue, featuring really necessary upgrades on music, including also hi-res cover scans and the FLAC alternative. I cannot make better than Brazil on Guitar opus tab, once again providing us detailed information on Tempo Feliz. Do not miss Brazil-on-guitar, an overwhelming tribute website to one of the greatest Brazilian musicians ever. Tracks include:

BrazilOnGuitar says: There is the anecdote that Baden Powell was very drunk during the Tempo feliz sessions. It seems believable, because the film shots of Round Midnight prove to which precise playing and musicality he was capable of in such condition. It is said that the rather shy Baden Powell could only be more extrovert by drinking alcohol. This is very regrettable and he payed a high price, recording such an expressive, relaxed album like Tempo feliz.

This can be seen in his commands, his rhythmic finger clicking and humming along to his musical ideas, which reminds of Keith Jarrett and was rather rare for Baden Powell. It is impressive with which tone, coordination and endurance he played in this jam session.

It is the only recording he did with the Brazilian harmonica player Mauricio Einhorn. Even though they play completely different instruments there were no boundaries between Mauricio and Baden, they were listening and responding to each other. It may seem unfortunate that this was their only recording but nothing remained unsaid. The record’s grooves preserve their musical ideas and contain material for the following generations of guitarists and harmonica players. Tempo feliz is one of the best records, that Baden Powell did in the sixties.

We thank Robert G. (Germany) for his translation.

Baden Powell – 27 Horas de Estudio (1969)

Link original: Baden Powell – 27 Horas de Estudio (1969)
Publicado em: Monday, February 11, 2008 by zecalouro

This album has a great importance for Loronix and me as well. I’m very happy to make this upgrade using the original Elenco 1969 first issue, including the LP cover scans and my own transfer, including the FLAC files options. 27 Horas de Estudio was also the album that gave me the opportunity to reach for the first time the awesome BrazilOnGuitar, one of the greatest websites I had the chance to visit in my life, which I’m gathering 27 Horas de Estudio information from BrazilOnGuitar Opus tab. Let’s read BOG info.

BrazilOnGuitar says: We think that 27 Horas de Estudio was recorded at the end of 1968 because BP played a very similar arrangement of Iemanja on Le Monde Musical 2. We don’t know of any other record with this arrangement.

Lotus, swinging in the style of Django and Jacques Loussier, opens this ambitious record. It is one of the most beautiful compositions on 27 Horas and sounds like a homage to these musicians, but is in fact dedicated to his fast car, a Lotus. The string arrangement of All the things you are has not the lightness of the 1967 version and rather resembles the version from 1959. Three solo pieces form the center of this record, the Spanish Violao, the Moorish O cego aderaldo and the Brazilian A lenda do Abaete, showing that the thirty years old Baden belonged to the master guitarists of that time.

With compositions like Um abraco no Codo or Alo, Ernesto he would deal with on later recordings. In 1974 Alo, Ernesto would become Valsa No.1 and be played in studio and on stage. The reflective Viagem and the Double by Bach close the record.

27 Horas de Estudio was for a long time only available as an LP and (without the WWW) very hard to find outside of Brazil. The long awaited CD-reissue (2003) was carefully remastered and shows the original Elenco cover.

This is Baden Powell – 27 Horas de Estudio (1969), for Elenco, one of the greatest Baden Powell albums, Loronix Preview Center features my favorite, 01 – Lotus. Tracks include:

Personnel

Ernesto Ribeiro-Goncalves

Today was my Daddy’s birthday, a great day for me. He took one of his albums from his collection to make available at Loronix, but I arrived late at home after birthday celebration and I could not make the transfer on time. Anyway, not a big issue, since I’m making one of the albums he likes most and an awaited repost requested by many Loronixers. Let’s see.

This is Elizeth Cardoso – Elizeth Interpreta Vinicius (1963), for Copacabana. The second cover belongs to the first original Copacabana issue and the first has Vinicius de Moraes and it is the one that I like most. Elizeth Interpreta Vinicius features Elizeth Cardoso performing Vinicius de Moraes repertoire with arrangements of Maestro Moacir Santos and the guitar of Baden Powell. With these credentials, I don’t need to set up a poll to evaluate if this LP addresses the preferences of our community. Besides the participation of Moacir Santos and Baden Powell, remaining personnel is so far not confirmed. Tracks include:

Baden Powell – Nosso Baden (1980) featuring Os Originais do Samba

Link original: Baden Powell – Nosso Baden (1980) featuring Os Originais do Samba
Publicado em: Saturday, December 29, 2007 by zecalouro

cvllos said bellow that I’m a tireless vinyl searcher, however, when I check my hunting list, I think it has more albums on search than the ones available at Loronix. Some albums on my hunting list I already have, but they stay listed waiting for a better cover, better media and even to replace a missing piece. This one is the last example and I gave up on searching for another copy. I will tell you what is missing on it. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell – Nosso Baden (1980), for Atlantic. I like this album, Baden Powell guitar has only the accompaniment of Os Originais do Samba rhythm section, there is no bass, drums or any other electric instrument. It is a late acoustic album, a very common concept today. Baden Powell sings with his small and beautiful voice of his late years and Os Originais do Samba give some vocal support in some tracks.

This album was never released on CD and came with a single featuring Baden Powell performing an instrumental song A Estrela e a Cruz. The single was part of a contest, and the idea was to give a chance to everybody to be Baden Powell partner on A Estrala e a Cruz. There was a form inside the album to be fulfilled with your lyrics to the song A Estrela e A Cruz. Unfortunately, I don’t have this single and this is the missing piece of this post. I thought we could make the contest again using this single. I urge Loronixers to track this single down, so we can try to organize this contest 28 years after the first one. Tracks include:

Baden Powell – E de Lei (1972)

Publicado em: Wednesday, December 12, 2007 by zecalouro

Every Baden Powell album is a very solid listening experience and some – in my humble opinion – are truly masterpieces. E de Lei (1972), follows in the second case, I have no doubt this is one of the nicest Baden Powell albums I have heard so far. It is the last Baden Powell record with his favorite singer, Janine de Valeyne, and perhaps Baden Powell knew it, since he gives a lot of space to Janine de Valeyne very sophisticated vocals. Baden Powell delivers a great performance and I strongly recommend that everybody takes this album as a something really special. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell – E de Lei (1972), for Philips, presented here by the first Brazilian vinyl pressing. The session features a quartet with Baden Powell violao, bass, percussion and drums. This is the kind of release that explains by itself, flawless music and flawless performance by one of the greatest Brazilian musicians ever. Tracks include:

Baden Powell – Samba Triste (1989)

Link original: Baden Powell – Samba Triste (1989)
Publicado em: Thursday, November 29, 2007 by zecalouro

I think AdHoc will be taken by surprise with this post that has several elements of his contributions. This CD was issued in France, 1989, and nowadays is a very hard to find album, since it never had a reissue since them. I’m really glad to make this album available, the last Baden Powell career album at Loronix was made available in the beginning of July by one of those fantastic contributions by Caetano Rodrigues, a five months hiatus. I think Loronixers will be pleased with this one. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell – Samba Triste (1989), for Accord, featuring two Baden Powell records in one, Samba Triste Vol. 5 (1975) and Tristeza (1976). I can’t make better than Brazil-on-Guitar, which is the best-known resource to Baden Powell music. I’m taking BOG reviews on Samba Triste Vol. 5 and Tristeza to guarantee a flawless Baden Powell release at Loronix. Do not miss Brazil-on-Guitar at http://brazil-on-guitar.de.

BOG Samba Triste Vol. 5 (1975) review:

“BrazilOnGuitar says: Samba Triste is a cleanly produced studio record. We believe that it was recorded after the 1974 tour in the beginning of 1975 as Pedro Santos and Joaquim Paes Henriques (his drummer on tour and in the studio during the last years) do not play on this record. On the following Festival records Jean Arpino took over the drums.

Most likely, 1975 at the studio in the Normandy there were recorded three albums within five days: Samba Triste, Melancolie and Tristeza 1976. These recordings were the last with Janine de Waleyne, Guy Pedersen, his preferred musicians of the last years.

On the record of Samba Triste is written Vol.5 next to the title. This should probably put this record in context with the other four Festival albums, as Baden Powell had wanted to record five instead of four albums. However the style of this record belongs to another phase of his musical development.

We think that at least one track is a outtake from another recording session: Casa Velha (Apaixonado). Further BP did rename two compositions: Alo Ernesto became Valse No.1 and Babel later became Samba Novo.

1989 Samba Triste was released on CD, together with Tristeza 1976. Nowadays this is a rarity as it has never been re-released.”

BOG Tristeza (1976) review:

“We think that the 1976 record Tristeza, compared with Samba Triste and Melancolie that were produced at the same time, is the most interesting one. Except for two tracks, A Primeira Vez and Na Baixa Do Sapateiro, BP is accompanying himself on guitar, more often than on any other record. It can only be guessed whether the title Tristeza 1976 is a reference to the 1966 Tristeza on Guitar.

Unusual is the slower version of Canto de Ossanha, which like the other songs on the record belongs to the faster part of the live repertoire of these years. BP’s Version of A Primeira Vez is anticipating his later singing and playing style.Na Baixa Do Sapateiro comes in his usual masterly effortlessness, that is always surprising. Also on this record are musicality and imaginativeness more important than mere technical virtuosity.

The studio recordings Tristeza 1976 and Samba Triste show style and experience of the live repertoire of the mid-70ies with and around the bass player Guy Pederson. These recordings were the last studio recordings with Guy, his preferred musician of the last years, between 1972-1975.

1989 Tristeza 1976 was released on CD, together with Samba Triste, except for the track So Danco Samba. Nowadays this is a rarity as it has never been re-released with the original cover.”

Hello, Good Evening! We are starting today with the first out of two Baden Powell music videos to be released today as Loronix tribute to Baden Powell. If alive, Baden Powell would be making his 70th years birthday today. I think this is a really special date. I’m extremely busy this week and I could not check the news, but I think there are concerts all around celebrating this great artists.

This is Baden Powell – Os Afrosambas, with Baden speaking about Os Afrosambas creation and performing Canto de Ossanha with Vinicius de Moraes, Toquinho and Miucha. I hope this series of videos sent by rb.ardiles helps Loronixers to understand a little bit more about Baden Powell.

Hope uEnjoy!

Let’s close this first day of Caetano Rodrigues contribution with a very curious record, a collaboration between Baden Powell and the singer Maria D’Apparecida. As Caetano’s music arrived today, I did not research accordingly, but any recording with Baden Powell is basically a must get and I cannot resist to something that I never see before.

This is Baden Powell & Maria D’Apparecida – Maria D’Apparecida Chante Baden Powell (1979), for Carabine / Liberty (France). Maria D’Apparecida was a classical singer that switched to popular after a car accident in France. I’m not sure if she was born in France of Brazil, although she sings in Portuguese with no accent. I like her singing, not perfect from a technical point of view, but she has that feeling we find on singers like Thelma Soares and Marisa Barroso.

The repertoire brings 12 Baden Powell compositions, mainly songs from his partnership with Paulo Cesar Pinheiro. Baden Powell also plays guitar in all tracks. I’m showing the original LP cover provided by Caetano Rodrigues with the little kid at the beach and the CD issue showing Baden and Maria D’Apparecida together. Thanks Caetano for this really not easy to see Baden Powell album. Tracks include:

Baden Powell – Poema on Guitar (1967)

Publicado em: Monday, June 18, 2007 by zecalouro

Everybody who loves the music from Brazil is with a little sadness inside and I’m also feeling tired, by this not usual day. We must go on. I would not think twice moving forward with a instrumental guitar album recorded by Baden Powell taking the help of the folks of Brazil-on-Guitar, I could not make better than BOG to describe Poema on Guitar, which is considered one of the best instrumental only Baden Powell album in the 60’s.

This is Baden Powell – Poema on Guitar (1967), for Saba. Brazil-on-Guitar says: “In 1967 BP recorded his first album in Germany: Poema On Guitar. It was his second record on the SABA label and again JEB was the producer. What can be said about Tristeza on Guitar can be found on this record, too. Both are among his best instrumental recordings of the sixties.

After his appearance in the Berlin Jazz days on November 5th JEB organised first class musicians for the recording sessions: Eberhard Weber on bass, Sidney Smith on flute and Charly Antolini on drums. BP was so impressed with this rhythm group that he wanted to return to Germany to record more with them. But only in 1971 he recorded two albums with the well appreciated Eberhard Weber.

A possible interpretation of this record can be done on the selection and order of the songs: it could be seen as personal reminiscence of Sylvia Telles, who died on December 17th 1966. Feitinha, the girl, followed by Dindi, dedicated to her, Consolacao, comfort and melancholy Tristeza e Solidao.

On the second side there are baroque elements combined with Jazz: Samba triste, BP’s first hit in Brazil and his opening piece in the Berlin Jazz days, Euridice, calling from the realm of the dead, All the things you are, in a very beautiful arrangement for accoustic guitar, and Reza, a prayer, sung in 1966 by Edu Lobo in the last tour with Sylvia Telles.

In Japan POG was released in 1999 on CD in the known high quality. On the sampler “Three originals” (1993) can be found the entire record. It is however split on two CDs, but follows the original side change of the LP.”

Publicado em: Saturday, June 09, 2007 by zecalouro

Sometimes I have to write at Loronix with a great level of uncertain and the only way to keep it running is to make assumptions, sometimes work, sometimes doesn’t. Take this album as an example; I never heard about it before taking at that last anonymous contribution, never was released on CD, no auction sites availability and my searches were not of help. Anyway, perhaps a pretty unknown Baden Powell LP to thrill people, or perhaps this album is available on every Baden Powell fan shelf around the world. I hope I can amaze Loronixers with this really interesting double LP.

This is Baden Powell – O Grande Show | Gravado Ao Vivo (1979), for WEA. I really prefer to identify this album as “O Grande Encontro”, but the folks of Brazil-on-Guitar and Jornal Musical takes it as O Grande Encontro. This is the first double LP released at Loronix and also the first Double LP on Baden Powell discography, it is a live show recorded in Sao Paulo, Brazil at Teatro Procopio Ferreira, most of the tracks have lyrics sung by Baden Powell with that sweet and beautiful voice of his late years. Baden makes a nice rendition of Samba da Bencao, dedicating “Saravas” to everybody he could remember. The last and longer track brings a breathtaking version of Berimbau. You should not miss it, very near mint vinyl ripping. Tracks include:

Baden Powell – Baden / O Som de Baden Powell (1968)

Link original: Baden Powell – Baden / O Som de Baden Powell (1968)
Publicado em: Thursday, May 24, 2007 by zecalouro

What else can we say more about Baden Powell, the great master of Brazilian guitar? Everything was said, shown and heard here at Loronix. Baden Powell legacy is fantastic, he recorded several albums, really above the average. Baden Powell appearances on film is also widely available at the Internet, VHS tapes of fans and even documentary made in Brazil, Germany, France, among other countries.

Additionally, Baden Powell is has the best musician website I have ever seen so far, Brazil-on-Guitar.de, which is an honor to have it listed at Loronix a friend website. Don’t miss Brazil-on-Guitar, which I ask for help on reviewing another fantastic Baden Powell album.

This is Baden Powell – Baden / O Som de Baden Powell (1968), for Elenco as ME-48. Brazil-on-Guitar says: Baden is an outtake album from the Tristeza on Guitar sessions in July 1966. They are alternative takes with slight variations e.g. in Das Rosas or Round Midnight and unused songs like Canto de Ossanha or Lamento, one title was named differently. They have a very different sound. The SABA recording sound have a stronger bass sound, probably according to the musical taste of producer Joachim E. Berendt. The sound of the Brazilian Elenco pressing sounds more intimate and personal, without the strong bass sound on all instruments.

Thus it is not a simple re-pressing of the famous SABA record, but shows a certain independence, reaching uniqueness. This is emphasised by using rare pictures, Baden Powell ether with Herbie Mann, who did not take part in the recording session, and a less typical PR picture showing Baden doing a chord spanning six frets.

Baden is a well-done outtake album, unfortunately the only in his discography. BOG recommends listening to both recordings, if possible the Japanese CD version of Tristeza on Guitar and the Baden-reissue from 2003 (whose tracklist is wrong, Sarava instead if Samba de Bencao, furthermore there is a graphical mistake in the front cover).

Publicado em: Wednesday, April 25, 2007 by zecalouro

Hello, Good Evening! Let’s start today with a post that was only possible with the collaboration of several Loronixers. Everything started three months ago with Caetano Rodrigues, he said to me in Sao Paulo that this album is a classic and could not stay away from Loronix longer. I just make note of it and since then, we did not talk to each other about it.

However, a couple of days ago someone shouted at the message box for this album. So, I could remember very well that I missed the chance with Caetano, actually, I spoke with Caetano today and he said: “I said to you at that time!”, Caetano is great, great as our community. In a matter of days I received two contributions from Cesar Saldanha and Hideste, which I want to thanks for making this really fantastic album available.

This is Cyro Monteiro – De Vinicius e Baden Especialmente para Cyro Monteiro (1965), for Elenco. It has been a long time since the last Elenco LP, the legendary Bossa Nova record label owned by Aloysio de Oliveira, producer and director of this album. Cyro Monteiro was an important Samba interpreter, considered by Vinicius de Moraes as the greatest popular Brazilian singer ever. This is a unique Elenco album and Aloysio de Oliveira direction makes the difference. Cyro Monteiro performs Vinicius de Moraes and Baden Powell compositions. You cannot miss this one. Personnel includes Baden Powell. Tracks includes:

01 – Para Fazer Um Bom Café (Baden Powell / Vinicius de Moraes)
02 – Linda Baiana (Baden Powell / Vinicius de Moraes)

zecalouro recommends that you cancel dinner, turn off TV and stay tuned at Loronix. After a long and never ending day, Caetano package has finally arrived at Loronix headquarters. We are now deciding today’s picks, which is a real treat since the records are solid and wonderful, as ever.

I declare Caetano Mode = ON, effective today and ending at Loronix 1st Anniversary day on May 12th. Posts will be a little bit delayed, but don’t zap around the other channels; we are running fast to make it ready as soon as possible.

Cheers, zeca

Baden Powell – Baden Powell Quartet V. 2 (1971)

Link original: Baden Powell – Baden Powell Quartet V. 2 (1971)
Publicado em: Thursday, April 12, 2007 by zecalouro

When I research for Baden Powell info, the first and only place I go is the great BrazilOnGuitar, a free project, better, a love project to Baden Powell memory. I can live ten times and I would not make better and with the passion we have at their Opus. That’s why I’m asking their help to describe another Baden Powell album.

This is Baden Powell – Baden Powell Quartet Vol. 2 (1971), for Barclay. Visiting BrazilOnGuitar I learned that Baden Powell Quartet volumes one to three were recorded on a single session during three days in December 1970. We have already Vol. 3 at Loronix and now it is time to present Vol. 2. BrazilOnGuitar description is just bellow, followed by personnel. Tracks include:

Brazil-on-Guitar description

In December 1970s of the threepart series were recorded within three days in the Barclay studio. They are the best and final recordings of the quartet with its original members. The focus here is on Afro-Brazilian music, though not as conceptually closed as on “Canto on Guitar”. There are Folklore and own compositions, as well as variations of “Pai” and “Filho”.

The almost ten minutes lasting “Terra de Katmandou” is a mixture of many styles, citations and rhythms, creating a trancelike, meditative mood.

The records contribute to the image of the guitarist until today due to their high musical level and their fresh sound. His improvisational talent doesn’t need shallow virtuosity, which tends to cover weak spots and lacking imagination. Consistently Baden Powell takes up new ideas, new lines and rejects others.

For the first time he works together with the singer Janine de Waleyne, after discovering her in the choir of Adamo. Janine’s voice merges with the melody lines of Baden’s guitar playing. Her adapdability is impressive. The non-verbality between their voices, unbound of language, opens much freedom for the music. Something Baden Powell consistently searched and found in 1970.

We thank Robert G. (Germany) for his translation.

Once again I had to ask for help of friends on-line to build the last post decision, not so easy this time. I had the help of 3 Loronixers, leaving Google talk with a decision made and then reaching the next friend for a validation, changing everything again. I’m happy with this decision, this album is not an unanimity, some friends like it, some others don’t, but I think it is unique, full or charm and beautiful.

This is Baden Powell & Stephane Grappelli – La Grande Reunion (1974), for Festival (France). La Grande Reunion was record in only two days and zecalouro is presenting the first volume with eight of the fifteen songs recorded on that set. I was wondering how they could make fifteen songs in only two days with such different instruments without never being together before. Stephane Grappelli is one of the greatest Jazz violinists of all time, playing an important role on establishing the violin as a Jazz instrument. Tracks include:

This post has two purposes. The first is to show Loronixers another great out of print Baden Powell LP. The second is to invite you to get along with one of the best musicians websites that I know, made with passion, with extensive research and special attention on each detail.

Brazil-on-Guitar is the best Baden Powell website at the Internet, you should not miss at http://brazil-on-guitar.de. I’m a heavy user of Brazil-on-Guitar, there, I could understand why Baden Powell says Arigato at the end of this album, in spite of being record in Japan (1970), this album was released in Brazil as Gravado ao Vivo em Paris (1973), which is the LP that I have. Take a time to visit Brazil-on-Guitar and improve your knowledge on Baden Powell music.

This is Baden Powell – Gravado ao Vivo em Paris (1973), for Barclay/Ariola, featuring The Baden Powell Quartet with Baden Powell (guitar), Ernesto Ribeiro-Goncalves (bass), Helio Schiavo (drums) and Helio Schiavo (percussion). I will be straightforward this time, since you now have Brazil-on-Guitar. Tracks include:

I have been taking this LP as the re-issue of Baden & Vinicius – Afrosambas (1966), that is the reason for never give the deserved attention to it. This is very common and can occur several times if you are cover oriented, such like me. I’m happy to realize that, so we have a brand new LP to explore today. Let’s see.

This is Baden Powell & Vinicius de Moraes – De Baden para Vinicius (1981), for WEA, recorded at Teatro Clara Nunes – Rio de Janeiro between July and August 1980 as part of the show “Nosso Banden”. Nothing can go wrong when you have Baden Powell and Vinicius de Moraes together. Baden Powell is backed by Hélio Schiavo (drums), Saulo Bezerra de Melo (bass), Alfredo Bessa (percussion) and Ovídio (Pandeiro and Cuíca). Tracks include:

Publicado em: Thursday, January 18, 2007 by zecalouro

I will be open and honest with you this time, it was not easy to choose this last post of the day. Really. I started the day with a phone call to Caetano and we planned together something very different of what is being presented today. We decided to go with a wonderful Elizeth Cardoso album, but it was not ready and it was postponed. The nightmare began. I was thinking about something solid and strong and spent more than an hour wondering.

The second choice was Baden Powell, one that I like most, recorded in France, when the final decision came out of the blue, a piano Dick Farney LP. However, in spite of being a really great pick, the cover had something sad and I became disturbed to make it as the last post. This is a truly painful process. I’m considering now getting back to Baden Powell and that’s what I’m going to do.

This is Baden Powell – Baden Powell Quartet Volume 3 (1970), for Barclay (France). Do not worry, I’m now completely satisfied with this pick. Baden Powell released in France three LPs with this “Quartet” formation and this one is considered the best. This record has the participation of Janine de Waleyne as a singer and her performance on first track really makes. Baden Powell Quartet is Baden Powell (guitar and vocal), Ernesto Ribeiro Gonçalves (bass), Hélio Schiavo (drums) and Alfredo Bessa (percussion and vocal). Ariel Kalma (flute) and Jeanine de Waleyne performs on track 01 and Lou Game plays flute on track 05. Tracks include:

01 – Coisa Nº 1 (Moacir Santos)
02 – Terra de Katmandou (Baden Powell)
03 – A Primeira Vez (Alcebíades Barcelos “Bide” / Armando “Marçal”)
04 – Ferro de Passar (Baden Powell / Paulo César Pinheiro)
05 – Falei e Disse (Baden Powell / Paulo César Pinheiro)

This is Celia Reis, her first time at Loronix, thanks to Edson Mendes, the fast friend that sent us the Front and Back cover of the Elizeth Cardoso LP with Joao Gilberto as a side-man, playing guitar. It is hard to write about this album, really above the average of LPs with Samba songs.

This is Celia Reis – O Samba e Celia Reis (1962), for Philips, solid from start to the end with arrangements of Baden Powell and also guitar playing in some tracks. Backing vocals are wonderful, provided by MPB-4. Celso Murilo plays organ on several tracks. Celia Reis was a big surprise for me, beautiful singing. Edson Mendes made a wonderful job providing also background information on this record, which is included with the music. Tracks include:
