A very lovely record from one of the most prolific of the sambistas associated with the Portela samba school, A Velha Guarda de Portela (and also the terreiro / samba school of Oswaldo Cruz), his second album under his own name — as far as I know, the first was in 1976 and this was the next. It features a ton of people, as all great samba records do! It also contains a song in homage to the Mangueira samba school, a song composed in the 1930s by Cartola that had gone unrecorded until this album. The album has no weak songs, and the last one – with its firey rhythmic outro — will leave you wanting more.
