"[In 1976 composer, singer and percussionist Orlandivo] released this self-titled work on Copacobana records. The album mainly remains in the Bossa Nova realm, while at the time of the release the Bossa Nova era was almost at its end ... By the late 70's the Brasilian disco and rare groove/funk sound was taking over leaving little room for more 'traditional' sounding albums. Unfortunately the album gained little notice, but was revived 20 years later by diggers around the world. To many record collectors and Brazilian music lovers around the globe this remains a true classic from the vaults of Brasilian Bossa and downtempo Samba ... This beautiful (...) album contains sought after tracks such as 'Onde Anda O Meu Amor' and 'Tamanco No Samba'. Apart from Orlandivo, other artists such as João Donato and Azymuth's drummer Ivan Conti also deliver a solid contribution to the tracks, making this obscure Brasilian classic a must have for Brasilian music lovers!".
