Ciço Do Pará - Quem Falou Está Errado from compacto - Audio Fidelity (year unknown)

Quem Falou Está Errado is a 1960s rarity on compacto by Ciço Do Pará. Ciço's catalog is consistently strong. The New York Audio Fidelity label released a handful of Brazilian records. I only know of two LPs that cross over into the forró genre: this compacto and the dazzling LP from Venâncio e Corumba.

Ribamar e Roberto Dupla Os Vagalumes - Baião Da Boa Vontade (baião) from compacto - Continental (1964)

Ribamar e Roberto, aka Dupla Os Vagalumes (translated directly as Double The Fireflies), only released this single compacto as a duo. It is wonderful and unusual, because it harkens back to a time when vocal baiãos were popular. Similar to Ouvindo by Trio Marayá, this is one of the last records of its kind.
