CD Reviews

The very first and must-have album by Elis Regina
Carlos from Rio | Rio de Janeiro, RJ Brazil | 05/18/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"
When Elis Regina was recognized as a great vocal master of Brazilian music, she had already recorded 4 albums with commercial music. She could not choose her repertoire at that time.



Since she was chosen to sing "Arrastao", the beautiful song by famous Edu Lobo, in a Music Festival, things had really changed for her. She was awarded the best vocal performance while the song was awarded as the best one in the Festival contest.



It was a smash hit, her first one. She had then signed with Philips/Polygram Records and her first disc was a single with "Arrastao", the version you will find as a bonus track in this CD.



Elis Regina has always rejected all her output before Philips Records so that she considered her first album this "Samba Eu Canto Assim", a splendid showcase which features her in her best with the best arrangers and musicians in the area. Every and each musician in Brazil had a dream at that time: to play in Elis Regina's records.



Here you'll find jazzy ensembles and string orchestra arrangements. Her smash hit "Menino das Laranjas" comes from this album. Also features a piano-voice rendition of Marcos Valle's "Preciso Aprender a Ser Só" with Dom Salvador at the piano. A must-have."
