Borrachinha - Nascimento Grande from Hoje Tem Forró - Fontana (1971)

Borrachinha - Nascimento Grande from Hoje Tem Forró - Fontana (1971)

Happy New Year! I can think of no better way to start 2015 than with Borrachinha, a performer with a vast catalog of music that has yet to be reissued or digitized. I originally thought that this may be his last live appearance, but this track actually originated from a Philips live album from 1964 called São João No Brejo. Fontana, the publisher of this album, was a subsidiary of Philips. Hoje Tem Forró is even stranger for featuring Marinês, who never recorded for Fontana or Philips, as far as I'm aware. The cover shot may also be one of the oddest ever released for a forró collection.
