Adoniran Barbosa’s real name was João Rubinato, he was a descendent
of Italian immigrants in São Paulo, Brazil. Adoniran was interpreter of so
called Samba Paulistano and wrote his songs mainly for the poor Italians
from the São Paulo quarters ‘Bexiga’ and ‘Brás’. He used their wrong
Portuguese on purpose. One of his biggest hits was ‘Trem das Onze’.
You may find it on ‘Demônios da Garoa, Trem das Onze’ below.
This record was originally from 1975, this is the 2006 cd release ..

His album ‘Morning glory’ is on number 15 in our download
list, 15 of over 3000 posts is a huge score. Today we have his
second and last solo album ‘Princess Lady’. He made one other
record with Hugh Mundell called ‘Jah Fire’, we’ll have that one
soon. Both singers died an untimely death, way too young.
Lacksley Castell died after being sick, age 24. Hugh Mundell was
shot during an assault while sitting in his car with his wife and
Junior Reid in the backseat. Reid survived the assault. Mundell
was only 21 years old. Both singers and close friends died late
1983, Mundell in October and Castell in November, both
singers had a promising career ahead, what a loss ..

Zijn album ‘Morning Glory’ staat op nummer 15 in onze download
lijst. Nummer 15 van meer dan 3000 posts is een geweldige score.
Vandaag hebben we zijn tweede en laatste solo album genaamd
‘Princess Lady’. Hij maakte nog één andere plaat samen met Hugh
Mundell genaamd ‘Jah Fire’, die hebben we voor later deze week gepland.
Beide zangers stierven zeer vroegtijdig, veel en veel te jong. Lacksley
Castell na een ziekbed, 24 jaar oud. Hugh Mundell werd tijdens een
overval dood geschoten terwijl hij in z’n auto zat met zijn vrouw en
Junior Reid op de achterbank. Reid overleefde de overval. Mundell
was slechts 21 jaar oud. Beide zangers en goede vrienden stierven
eind 1983, Mundell in Oktober en Castell in November, beiden
hadden een veel belovende carrière voor de boeg,
een groot verlies ..

We zagen Cuco Valoy al meerdere malen. Hij begon met zijn broer
Martin Los Ahijados. We hadden al een aantal van hun albums. Later
begon hij met zijn zoon Ramón Orlando de groep Los Virtuosos. Ook
in die hoedanigheid zagen we hem meerdere malen. Cuco komt van
de Dominicaanse Republiek en is thuis in de merengue, son montuno,
salsa en guaracha. Hij speelt percussie, gitaar en is zanger. Hij is
bekend als schrijver van de hit ‘Juliana’ ..

Looking at Vincent Ugabi’s discography on Discogs we find only
a few records. Discogs clearly has some catching up to do. We
were lucky enough to find some earlier and recently we found
this here elpee. I could not discover a year of release but okay,
listening to it makes up for that hiatus. Get it and spread it ..
