BABY / FILHOS DE ZAMBI (7 INCH)
7 Inch
Quinteto Ternura and Trio Ternura on the next 7 inch release in Mr Bongo’s Brazil 45 series.
Our much in-demand series of classic Brazilian 45s are back! Featuring a vibrant new design, we’ve curated yet more wants-list regulars and unearthed fresh finds from Brazil that are destined to become collector’s items in their own right.
‘Baby’ – cross it off your Wants List at last. Written by Caetano Veloso, arranged by Arthur Verocai, covering Gal Costa. An absolutely killer Brazilia modern soul jam – a rarity in Brazil that we hammer in DJ sets and have been wanting to release for a while. Taken from the Quinteto Ternura self-titled LP from 1974.
‘Filhos De Zambi’ is uptempo samba-funk of the highest order, and now very difficult to find at a decent price in it’s original RCA ’compacto’ format. Percussion high on the mix, hands claps and a brilliant harmonised chorus line.
