BrazilOnGuitar says: In 1970 Baden Powell arranged and accompanied ten songs with the traditional
percussion group "Os Originais do Samba" and with the vocal Quartet "Os Cantores da Lapinha". "This Quartet was formed by Ruy and Magro (MPB-4) and
Cynara and Cyva (Quarteto em Cy) especially for the recording of the album, on which, for contractual reasons,
the four could not appear under their own names."
This was the second to last Baden Powell record for Elenco. They are the best known songs by Baden Powell and
Paulo Cesar Pinheiro and became standards. Only in 1977 he would turn again to this form of accompaning
his own compositions.
The exact recording date is not known. BOG can only guess, that it was recorded between February-March of 1970.
In March 1970, Elizeth Cardoso recorded four compositions for her record Falou e Disse.
The accompaniment and arrangement was done by Baden Powell, who used a similiar conception, thus suggesting that
the records were done at the same time.
