CARLOS BARBOSA-LIMA - Dez Dedos Magicos Num Violão De Ouro [1958] LP

This is Antonio Carlos Barbosa Lima – Dez Dedos Magicos num Violao de Ouro (1957), for Chantecler, the debut album of the renowned Brazilian guitarist Carlos Barbosa Lima, recorded in 1957 when he was only 14 years old. This should be really fascinating for musicians, guitarists and fans of Carlos Barbosa Lima, which is a brilliant acoustic guitar player that has even invented techniques that no other guitarist had even tried before.

the following experts are taken from Capitol promo material -

from Hi-Fi & Music Review May, 1958 - ...a prize-winner in my collection. Laurindo Almeida's guitar playing captures the keen poignancy and rhythmic elan of Brazilian music with superb assurance and taste. He is joined by an excellent flutist, Martin Ruderman...and a mezzo-soprano whose velvet voice and astonishing flexibility has hardly an equal at present: a girl with the singular name of Salli Terri. She sings Villa-Lobos' Bachianas Brasileiras No 5 with a sinuousness and ecstasy which make this the finest modern version. - K.G.R.

from the Seattle Post Intelligence, February 1958 - ...Miss Terri's voice is an ethereal one, and the three musicians make totally enchanting music together. Highly recommended.

from the Oregonian, February 1958 - ...exploits the lyric and emotional possibilities of everything from the 5th Bachianas Brasileiras to a Chopin prelude...unbelievable singing. A fascinating assortment of mingled beauties.
