What good is there in collecting something and not share it with others with the same interest as yours?

The objective of this blog is to share songs not commercially available anymore, for music is the language of the soul and it must not be forgotten.

NÚBIA LAFAYETTE

Madrugada E Amor (1964)


Idenilde Araújo Alves da Costa, as known as Núbia Lafayette (Assu, 21/01/1937 - Niterói, 18/06/2007), was a Brazilian Singer.
Núbia was born in Assu, Rio Grande do Norte, where she lived her first three years, when her family moved to Rio de Janeiro. Since very young she showed signs of a musical talent and when she was eight years old, she started appearing on youth programs.
Her career started by the end of the 1950's, under the pseudonym Nilde Araújo.  By that time she was a salesperson at Lojas Pernambucanas in the town of Rio de Janeiro, when she decided to appear at the program "A Voz De Ouro", aired by TV Tupy, singing songs from that period.  She was crooner at the Cave Rio nightclub and debuted singing Dalva de Oliveira.
The definitive name of Núbia Lafayette was an adaptation, in 1960, suggested by the composer  Adelino Moreira. It was him that took her to RCA Victor, supported by Nelson Gonçalves. It was also in 1960 that she released her first record, the samba-canção "Devolvi" by Adelino Moreira.  This release definively marked her as romantic pop singer.
The number of artists that claim to be influenced by Núbia Lafayette is large and includes names like Alcione, Fafá de Belém, Elymar Santos, Tânia Alves and the singer from Alagoas, Rose D' Paula.
Núbia went on participating on special presentations and eventual shows up to the end of her life.
She lived in Maricá, on the Rio de Janeiro shore.
