Brazil 45, number 36:

A. Claudia - Garra / AA. Os Tres Morais - Freio Dynamico

'Garra' – rich, sweet, orchestral bossa nova/MPB from the excellent Claudia, another of our favourite artists and featured several times in this series. Taken from her ‘Você, Claúdia, Você’ LP released in 1971 by Odeon Brazil.

'Freio Dynamico' – uptempo, cinematic, vocal MPB/Jazz with muted trumpets, pinging bass guitar strings and even a little bit of fuzz for good measure! Os Tres Morais we’re two brothers and a sister; Jane Vincentina, Sidney and Roberto do Espírito Santo. They formed in 1963.

‘Freio Aerodynamico’ is taken from the groups self-titled LP on Odeon 1971.
