Milton Nascimento Clube Da Esquina (1972) {emi Odeon}

Idolized by legions of guitarists and composers, this musician from Minas Gerais made his recording debut on Nivaldo Ornellas’ 1969album. But only in 1972, when Horta played the guitar on Milton Nascimento’s album "Clube da Esquina", did he catch the public’s attention. In the following years, Horta recorded with Elis Regina, Gal Costa, Nana Caymmi, Joyce, Edu Lobo.

Very nice early album from a bossa nova singer who still hasn't gotten her due! One of the best there was. Alaíde Costa is an important interpreter who had great success in the '60s. Her obstinate adherence to her delicate style, especially suited to the sensitive Brazilian genre modinha, made her be put aside by the cultural industry and she remained forgotten by the masses until her reappearance in Milton Nascimento's Clube da Esquina. She has been performing and recording erratically, but always with a high standard of quality in her dense interpretations. As a composer, she wrote music and lyrics for Afinal, and had partnerships with several important creators, such as Vinícius de Moraes and Geraldo Vandré.

A great production from the glorious days of Brazilian popular music. There are fast, medium-paced and slow tracks. On Catavento, she also scats, and though she doesn't always have perfect pitch and seems somewhat uncomfortable doing it, it does contribute to the album's versatileness.

In 2012 the band released the 4-CD compilation "Seasons", which includes almost everything the band recorded.
Elonkorjuu (Finnish for 'harvest') was formed in 1969 in the south-western Finnish town of Pori by the singer and guitarist Jukka Syrenius. In the autumn of 1970 the band were awarded second place in a music contest called Rockin' Suomen Mestaruus (Finnish Championship of Rock Bands). In the Seventies they released two albums, the first of which, "Harvest Time" (1972, EMI), is considered the most expensive Finnish collector's item, commanding a price of 500-1,000 euros. Their second album, "Flying High, Running Fast" (1978), was released under the English name of Harvest in the hope of breaking the band on the international market…
