0011 – Berekekê – Ben Jor, Francis, Chico, Tom, Sinatra, Gal, Raphael, Ari, Ney, Geraldo, Paulinho and Hermínio

Jorge Ben Jor is one of the best groove makers here. He was a friend of Tim Maia, Roberto Carlos and Erasmo Carlos since childhood. Jorge and Tim had the same nickname “Babulina” when they were teenagers and started their school bands, because of Roonie Self’s “Bop-A-Lena” song. They were huge fans of rockabilly style.

Francis Hime is a great Bossa Nova composer. You’ll be amazed by Passaredo, in which Chico Buarque was his partner.

Frank Sinatra recorded an album with Tom Jobim’s songs. It is a very pleasing album. Listen to Corcovado, or Quiet Nights, the title in the English lyrics.

Gal Costa is one of the best singers in the world. She released a very sweet and sentimental live album in Trama records, from which I have taken a track to put here.

In “Meu Violão” edition, you listened to Raphael Rabello’s production. Now, enjoy his guitar in No Rancho Fundo, a song from the composer Ari Barroso, with the singer Ney Matogrosso.

Geraldo Azevedo is another composer from Pernambuco, as Capiba, showed in Meu Violão edition. He is a soulful poet, very skilled guitar player and a cool singer. He started learning all by himself at 12, and many years later became a reference with his beautiful songs.

Paulinho da Violais one of our most popular samba composers. Listen to a song made together with Hermínio Bello de Carvalho, a great poet who wrote many of our most popular songs as a parner of astonishing musicians.

0006 – Ô Bahia! – Dorival Caymmi, Secos e Molhados, Ney Matogrosso, Djavan, Gilberto Gil, Maria Bethânia and Caetano Veloso

Dorival Caymmi is adored all over Brazil. He is one of the finest composers here, you have got to know him. He was also the man who presented João Gilberto to André Midani, Odeon Records‘ director in late 50’s, releasing Bossa Nova’s movement. We show here two of his sambas, a very sweet kind of music that speaks a lot about love and the sea. Unfortunately, he died this year, in August 16th.

Maria Bethânia is one of our most popular singers. She has a very strong voice, and a beautiful singing. She was born Bahia too. Together with her brother, the composer Caetano Veloso, she came to Rio de Janeiro by the 70’s and became very famous. We play Gema, from Caetano, and Mandou Me Chamar featuring Gilberto Gil, also from Bahia.

Secos e Molhados was a band born in the 70’s. They featured Ney Matogrosso, a great interpreter. The band dissolved before their second album, but Ney Matogrosso became one of the most renowned and exotic brazilian artists. We show here two of Secos e Molhados hits.

Djavan is a composer born in Maceió, capital city of Alagoas state. He’s also very renowned. His style is a combination of jazz, latin and african rythms. I will show a not so famous composition called Jogral. I am sure you’ll twist your head with that!
