XANGO / LAMBADA PAULEIRA Magalhaes / Os Panteras

7 Vinyl

For number 84 in the Brazil 45 Series, we head to the North of Brazil with this dancefloor monster, double-sider by Magalhes / Os Panteras.

Xang by Magalhes is taken from his E Sua Guitarra album, from 1986, and originally released on Gravasom Records. A stunning, driving Lambada track with haunting vocals and a compelling gusto energy. It has been gaining popularity over recent years with DJs and is a sure-fire get-out-of-jail dancefloor saver.

On the flip, we find another biggy from Os Panteras, Lambada Pauleira. Also released on Gravasom Records, but a year later in 1987. It is best known for Joutro Mundos fine re-edit of the track, but here we have it in its original form, in all its quirky brilliance. It is easy to see why, over the years, it has been a staple of some of Brazils finest DJs sets.
