Lp Os Diagonais -1º Lp-1969-cassiano-milito -rare Samba Soul

It is hard to write about this post and this band. The first Os Diagonais was released on the very beginning of Loronix and was responsible for bringing many friends to Loronix. It has been more than three months since then and it is a great pleasure to present Os Diagonais first LP to the fans of this legendary group.

Os Diagonais started in 1964 as Bossa Trio. They had a very short career, recoding several singles, this first LP in 1969 and the last one in 1971, making a mix of Samba and Soul music blended with nice vocal harmonies. Among several members during these years, it is very easy to highlight several names that became later renowned artists, such as: Cassiano, Luizao, Hyldon, Osmar Milito, among others.
