Sacy - Plantador De Algodão (côco) from Salve-Se Quem Puder Tem Sacy No Pau-De-Arara - Odeon (1960)

It has been a busy month, so I am a bit slow to upload new content at the moment. This is another classic from Sacy's Salve-Se Quem Puder Tem Sacy No Pau-De-Arara, which is quite a mouthful to say. By the time this LP compilation of 78rpm singles was released, most of Sacy's work was behind him. Sacy has become one of those mythical figures from (primarily) the 1950s who disappeared by the mid-1960s.

Jota Fonseca - Meu Norte Venceu (rojão) from RGE 78rpm (1961)

Jota Fonseca's legacy is mixed. He was lucky that his early 60s productions were fabulous tunes that sounded stellar. Jota was unlucky that most of his work was only released on 78rpm, meaning that his presence on vinyl, a much more long-lived format, is minimal. That said, he ended up on at least one compacto and LP compilation. Also, a fair number of Jota Fonseca's 78s survived, meaning that he is better off than Carlos Galindo, who has all but vanished. Meu Norte Venceu, written by Sebastião Do Rojão, is a rolicking rojão from a great double-sided 78rpm single.
