A Noite Vai Chegar
LP (Item 62473) Philips (Brazil), 1977 — Condition: Sealed$34.99 ...
LP, Vinyl record album
Fantastic work from 70s Brazil – served up here by the great Lady Zu, who was one of the few female artists in the mostly-male samba soul generation! Lady Zu's a bit like Tim Maia at the time – a soul singer first, and Brazilian artist second – and works here with a sound that would be right at home on the American scene of the time, save for the fact that the lyrics are in Portuguese! There's a slightly clubby vibe to the music, but it's nicely balanced with straighter work too – a bit like Warner recordings by Candi Staton from the late 70s. Arrangements are by Luis Roberto Oliveira, and the whole thing's great – a really unique slice of music from the scene at the time. Titles include "Novidades", "Esqueca Me", "Com Sabor", "Solucao", "So Voce", "A Noite Vai Chegar", and "Lady E Meu Nome". © 1996-2022, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Brazilian Polysom reissue, still sealed! Shrinkwrap has some sticker remnants.)
Sealed
This is what it says, that the record is still held fast in shrink-wrap. We tend to be pretty suspicious about these things, so if the shrink-wrap doesn't look original, or if the record seems to have undergone some damage over time, we'll probably take it out of the wrapper to ensure that it's in good shape — which is why we don't have more of these. In some cases the shrink-wrap may be torn in spots, but if it's not possible the record has been taken out and played, the record will still qualify as "Sealed".
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.
