It took time for Cartola to release his first album, the same name, which hit stores in 1974, on the Marcus Pereira record label. Just as it is impossible to talk about samba without mentioning his name, it is unthinkable to talk about the national discography without mentioning his albums. One of the founders of Estação Primeira de Mangueira, the composer, singer and musician marked the history of national music and is still a great reference. And it is his first album that Polysom ​​brings back to stores, on 180-gram vinyl, through the Classics on Vinyl collection.   The album was produced by jc Botezelli (Pelão), with arrangements by Horondino José da Silva (Dino), who also plays the 7-string guitar. The album features 12 tracks, all written by Cartola, some with partners such as Carlos Cachaça, Dalmo Castelli, Elton Medeiros and Nuno Veloso. Among them are Happen, Alvorada, Tive Sim and O Sol Nascerá.


Biography Born 11 October 1908
Born In Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Died 30 November 1980 (aged 72)
Angenor de Oliveira, known as Cartola (it is Portuguese for 'top hat'), (October 11, 1908 – November 30, 1980) was born in Rio de Janeiro, in a neighborhood called Catete. He got his nickname because of the bowler hat he wore to keep the cement from ruining his hair while working at construction sites.
He was one of the samba composers and founders of the Estação Primeira de Mangueira, and has credit for both the name of the school and its colors: green and pink. Cartola composed, alone and alongside others, more than 500 songs.
"Cartola did not exist. He was a dream we had."
(Nelson Sargento)
