Elza Soares Se Acaso Voce Chegasse - A Bossa-Negra (LP)

(Honey Pie Records) 12 tracks

A very distinctive personality! A dark, dense, rough voice as a strong and conscious expression of her poor social background. Throughout her life, singer Elza Soares was one of the strongest and most respected Brazilian performers of all genres. Se Acaso Você Chegasse", released in 1960, was her second album. A great and tough statement on the black side of the samba and bossa style. A vibrant, colorful, energetic collection of songs based on a stream of big band arrangements by the great Oswaldo Borba (E Sua Orquestra). A treasure in the entire history of Brazilian music!
