Som Okey 5

CD (Item 950830) RGE/Som Livre (Brazil), 1969 — Condition: Used
Out Of Stock

CD

✈
Very groovy pop from late 60s Brazil – a post-bossa combo who harmonize along with their grooves, and who work here on a mix of organ, guitar, and piano! The style's a fair bit like some of the best harmony vocal work coming out of EMI/Odeon during the same stretch – a great blend of earlier bossa modes and more baroque pop influences – all soaring along in a mix of different rhythms that continue to delight throughout the entire set! There's a real Blue Brazil sort of feel to the whole record – a tightness and love of rhythm that graces both the vocals and small combo instrumentation. Tracks include "Tava Na Cara", "Beto Rockfeller", "Cantiga Por Luciana", "Que Maravilha", "Mar", "Juliana", "Hier Encore", "Duro De Roer", and "Pais Tropical".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

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.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
