Reissued here for the first time, "Cartao Postal" is one of the best and most sought-after Brazilian funk-soul albums from the early '70s. It includes some outstanding uptempo gems like Marcos and Paulo Sergio Valle's 'Que bandeira', and the stellar 'Esperar Pra Ver', co-written by Evinha's brother Renato Correa who also happened to be a member of the Golden Boys. This is a classic Brazilian soul-funk title, right up there with all the greatest albums of the genre. Remastered from the original tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl. This release is part of a new reissue series that will include many other outstanding Brazilian classics. "Cartao Postal" was originally released on Odeon Brazil in 1971, a few years after Evinha started her solo career. From 1961 to 1968 she was a member of Trio Esperanca, alongside her brothers Mario and Regina. In 1969 Evinha won first prize at the Festival Internacional da Cancao Popular and her discography for Odeon took off. "Cartao Postal", her third solo album, comprises some outstanding gems. Songs like 'Que bandeira', by Marcos Valle, Paulo Sergio Valle and Mariozinho Rocha, that moves between funk/soul and bossa/MPB grooves; the stellar 'Esperar Pra Ver', co-written by Evinha's brother Renato Correa who also happened to be a member of the Golden Boys, is a mid-tempo funk soul number that features stunning arrangements and an epic bassline that is hard to be forgotten... 'So Quero' emanates samba soul sounds while songs like 'Por Mera Coincidencia' or 'Rico Sem Dinheiro' resemble what Trio Esperanca was doing at the time: vocal-driven groovy jams spiced with celestial strings arrangements and heavy-duty drums and basslines, which is not surprising since they both worked with the same producers and arrangers, as they were all Odeon artists. Ridiculously rare and expensive now, and at the top of many collectors' wants lists for decades, it's finally reissued here after years unavailable.
