Riachao, Batatinha e Panela – Samba da Bahia, Fontana 1978

Ever since I heard this album, I’m a fan of Riachao, he’s got
such a pleasant voice. And his sambas are just delightful.
He can easily be seen next to Nelson Cavaquinho or Cartola.
One of Brasil’s greatest ‘Sambistas’.
Batatinha and Panela deserve to be on this album too
but my attention goes out to the A-side.
