MOREIRA DA SILVA

Conversa De Botequim (1970)

Moreira da Silva, the son of a trombonist of the band of the military police, sang as an amateur in serestas at a very young age. In 1931, he recorded for the first time ("Ererê" and "Rei Da Umbanda," both pontos de macumba by Amor for Odeon). He recorded another album for Odeon and moved to Columbia, where he recorded two hits for the Carnival of 1933: "Arrasta A Sandália" (Aurélio Gomes/Baiaco) and "É Batucada" (Caninha/Visconde de Bicuíba). The latter was the winner of the first official contest of Carnival music of Rio de Janeiro in the same year. Invited by Duque, Moreira da Silva went to work in the Cassino Atlântico. "Implorar Só A Deus" (Kid Pepe/Germano Augusto/J.S. Gaspar) was another hit in 1935, establishing his reputation as an inspired interpreter. In the next year, he began to appear on Programa Casé at Rádio Philips, and in 1937 he was hired by César Ladeira for Rádio Mayrink Veiga. In the same year, his interpretation of "Quatro Linhas" (Tancredo Silva) became a milestone, being the first time that he inserted slang and humorous commentaries between musical phrases (the break, or breque). This style, which he took to the ultimate point, became his trademark -- some of his breaks reached the mark of one minute or more, sometimes with dialogue. In the same year, "Jogo Proibido" (Tancredo Silva/Davi Silva/Ribeiro Cunha) continued in the same line, also with enormous success. In 1939, he toured Portugal (Porto and Lisbon), where he worked on the film A Varanda Dos Rouxinóis. "Amigo Urso" (Henrique Gonçalves), recorded for RCA Victor in the same year, became one of his greatest hits. After several other hits, he was hired by Rádio Tupi in 1950. In 1958, invited by Aluísio de Oliveira, he recorded the LP O Último Malandro, followed by several others. Miguel Gustavo wrote sambas-de-breque especially for him, describing adventures where Kid Morengueira (another of his nicknames) was the hero. The biggest hit of these was "O Rei do Gatilho" (1962). In 1979, invited by Chico Buarque, he performed on the Ópeara Do Malandro LP. He toured Brazil in 1980, in the Projeto Pixinguinha. The samba school Unidos de Manguinhos paid tribute to him, parading to the samba enredo "Moreira Da Silva, 90 Anos De Um Malandro." In 1995, he performed a series of shows with success in the Projeto Seis e Meia; his 94 years of age were commemorated with shows at the Ritmo nightclub, with the presence of several artists. In the same year, the book Moreira da Silva, O Último Dos Malandros (Alexandre Augusto Teixeira Gonçalves, Editora Record) was released. Moreira da Silva continued to perform in shows until his death in 2000.

Carlos José recorded more than 25 albums from 1957 to 1975. Among his biggest hits, "Oferta" (his first recorded composition, 1958), "Esmeralda" (Fernando Barreto/Filadelfo Nunes, 1960), "Lembrança" (1962), "Queria" (Carlos Paraná, 1964), and "Oração da Mãe Menininha" (Dorival Caymmi, 1973) deserve mention. At 11, he learned to play the violão (Brazilian acoustic guitar) with his mother. At 13, he received first place in the famous novice radio contest Papel Carbono. In 1957, while studying at law school, he had a big break on Flávio Cavalcânti's show on TV Rio. He soon recorded his first single (through Polydor), with "Foi a Noite" (Tom Jobim/Newton Mendonça) and "Ouça" (Maysa). He was appointed Revelation of the Year by critics of Rio de Janeiro. Leaving law school, he began to perform both nationally and internationally (through Argentina and Uruguay). In 1997, José re-recorded his biggest hits in Polygram's 20 Super Sucessos de Carlos José.
