Neco - Velvet Bossa Nova
From the album "Velvet Bossa Nova" (1966).
Guitar - Neco (Daudeth Azevedo 1932-2009);
Drums - Wilson Das Neves;
Bass - Tiao Marinho;
Percussion - Rubens Bassini.
At first sounded like a typically sleepy easy listening bossa nova LP from the Sixties. Then I noticed it was made in Brazil, the guitarist is really good, the arranger knows where to put the strings, excellent song selection . A first rate cocktail music album.
