NEM PALETO, NEM GRAVATA 1973 LP

Description

Originally issued on the ATCO/Continental label in 1973, Paleto, Nem Gravata (1973)constitutes a hidden gem from Brazil's golden era of samba-jazz. Osmar Milito, a master of piano and rhythm, blends breezy Bossa Nova with soulful samba and rich MPB textures. Backed by lush arrangements and a laid-back vibe, this album captures the effortless cool of 1970s Rio. Featuring standout tracks like Jorge Ben's "Morre o burro, fica o homem" and "Quem mandou (Pé na tábua)," Milito's work is both sophisticated and deeply groovy. A must-listen for fans of Marcos Valle, Azymuth, or Arthur Verocai.
