I had been planning a different samba album for today, a vinyl rip of a somewhat-scarce album, but I just couldn’t manage to finish editing it before the weekend. So instead I am bringing you yet another title from Fundo de Quintal, their fourth LP, and the second on which Arlindo Cruz plays a huge roll (appropriate for a huge guy) as a player and songwriter. The band is really hitting its stride here. I had the honor of seeing him play a live show for free this year and I have never seen so many women going crazy over a large man. I swear I saw some panties thrown on stage although the night is kind of hazy in my memory. Among the great “in-house” songwriters in the group there is also a collaboration between Zeca Pagodinho and Cruz in the credits, as well as a closing number from Jorge Aragão who had left at this point.
Not a dull moment here, folks!

This looks great. Big thanks. Still chewing on the "Samba é no Fundo do Quintal", but I'll trust your words and go for this.
And finally bless us again with a re-up here too. Thanks FGV.
Could you please re-upload this and Samba é no Fundo de Quintal?
Thanks
