A Arte De Maria Bethania

LP (Item 360129) Fontana (Brazil), Late 60s/Early 70s — Condition: Very Good+
2LP Gatefold
Classic work from one of Brazil's greatest artists – a collection of Maria's earliest recordings for Philips, pulled from her records for the label from the late 60s and early 70s! Bethania's style was like no one else's at the time – dark, serious, and incredibly powerful – a key part of the growth of MPB in the 70s, and delivered with arrangements and production that were quite intense. Titles include "A Tua Presenca Morena", "Se Eu Moresse Amanha", "Iansa", "Estacio Holly Estacio", "Bom Dia", "Mano Caetano", "Coracao Ateu", and "Drama".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Maria Bethania

Nossos Momentos
Philips (Brazil), 1982. Near Mint- Gatefold
A great little live set from Maria Bethania – one recorded with the lighter, looser sound she was using in the early 80s – and which stands as a nice contrast to her more dramatic concert performances of the 70s! The music director for the show is Gilberto Gil, and there's a bit of the ... LP, Vinyl record album
Fontana (Brazil), 1972. Very Good-
A great look at the post-Tropicalia scene in Brazil – as the set features artists who struck big at the 1972 Festival International Da Cancao – titles that include "Let Me Sing Let Me Sing" by Raul Seixas, "Mande Um abraco Pra Velha" by Os Mutantes, "Pente" ... LP, Vinyl record album

Elizeth Cardoso & Silvio Caldas

Elizeth Cardoso E Silvio Caldas Vol 2
Copacabana (Brazil), 1971. Very Good- Gatefold
A mixture of samba and mellower numbers – duets by Elizeth and Silvio, set to larger arrangements that still preserve a bit of a rootsy feel on the best tracks. LP, Vinyl record album

Dorival Caymmi & Ary Barroso

Ary – Caymmi (aka Um Interpreta O Outro)
Evento/Odeon (Brazil), 1958. Near Mint-
Late 50s work from these two important Brazilian songwriters – served up here in a cool 70s package! The tracks have a nicely produced quality that makes them some of the most preferred recordings by the two artists – with strong arrangements that set off their voices nicely. There's ...

Clara Nunes

O Canto Da Guerreira
EMI (Brazil), 1989. Near Mint-

Nana Vasconcelos

Saudades
ECM, 1980. Near Mint-
A really unique album from the legendary percussionist Nana Vasconcelos – one that continues the groundbreaking tradition of his 70s work, but with a very special style here! Some of the tracks use overdubs, so that Nana is mixing berimbau, percussion, voice, and other percussion instruments ... LP, Vinyl record album
Quartin/Continental (Brazil), 1970. Near Mint-
A fantastic album from this legendary Brazilian saxophonist – and one that's way different than the usual instrumental reading of the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim! The setting is less of a bossa-inspired one than a post-Coltrane mode – as Victor Assis Brasil blows alto sax, and a bit ... LP, Vinyl record album

Lenita Bruno

Work Of Love
Nucleus, 1967. Sealed
A light and dreamy set of Brazilian vocal tracks – recorded in 1967, and featuring the voice of singer Lenita Bruno, a strong 60s talent with a style that's somewhat like Sylvia Telles. Arrangements on the set are by Clare Fischer – who plays piano, organ, and electric harpsichord in a ... LP, Vinyl record album
Montuno, 1988. Near Mint-
One of the greatest Airto records ever – a really overlooked record cut for the mostly-Latin Montuno label in the 80s! The album's quite spare, and almost more in a Latin mode at times – given the harder percussion on the set, and the firey recording style given to the set by Montuno ... LP, Vinyl record album
