Meicio Askanasy, José Prates, Ivan de Paula - Tam…Tam…Tam…! (2014) [Hi-Res]

THIS IS A BRAND NEW MASTER!! SOUNDS AMAZING!! Issued only once in 1958 as a souvenir from Meicio Askansay's "Braziliana", this remarkable exotic and insanely rare LP is the blueprint of the Brazilian sound that was to come over the next decade. Here you will hear the origins of Mas-Que-Nada along with chords, rhythms and sounds that with be strangely familiar to you. But nothing sounds quite like Tam...Tam...Tam...! This is the first ever reissue. PLEASE NOTE: there are no masters. The LP is taken from Ed Motta's original - we have remastered it carefully, but there are some residual sounds and crackles. If you ask us, it still sounds amazing. The CD on the other hand has more sound removed, but then again it is a pure digital format. NOTE: This new master was taken from the "Egon" original, this is Egon from Now Again, who has a rare original in near perfect condition. This is a cleaner fresher sound than the first issue.
