Tenorio Jr. ‘Embalo’

EMI (1989) Original Brazilian pressing.

Rare reissue of the legendary 1964 bossa jazz classic. Includes the much sampled 'Nebulosa' as used by DJ Nuts. The original LP is worth a fortune and even this re-issue is hard to find.

Vinyl is EX. Split to top seam and ring wear to sleeve.

Here’s Dusty Groove’s opinion:

Fantastic! This is one of the all-time Brazilian jazz classics of the 60s -- and one of the most sought after bossa albums ever! Pianist Tenorio Jr leads a crack ensemble through some fantastic tracks -- as warm and soulful as they are tight and angular, a perfect summation of the bossa jazz idiom at its truest expression! The writing is fantastic throughout -- and the album includes loads of great numbers -- including the famous "Nebulosa", instantly recognizable from a sample used by United Future Organization, and the tracks "Clouds", "Nectar", "Embalo", and "Estou Nessa Agora". A delight through and through.

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration.
