flexi fifties
Yeah, it was in October 1960 which hit stores the first release of the legendary label flexi, produced and designed by the equally legendary composer and producer John Clay (1907/2006) and that revolutionized the design of children's records in Brazil, with the novelty of pressing on colored vinyl, just when the format of compact seven-inch vinyl was beginning to pick up momentum in the country.
The first two releases were flexi The Ant and the Grasshopper and Chapeuzino Red and Journal YW well observed about the adaptation of Braguinha for the first, including a happy ending in which both "riponga" about workaholic wins, helping one another: "John Clay gave an ant wants more humane, because, in his view, who both work can not be inhumane. Plus, as a poet, could not let a cicada, teal melodies, cheerful, flippant, did not know their songs break the hardest heart of a materialist. And what stands out in the adaptation desired white-haired lad is happy to see the ants work and more animated by the songs of her friend cricket. "
not going to put these recordings here, which you should (or should!) Have and are easy to find even on CD. But I have something more rare: the compact promotional release on the label, "I Am flexi", using another new technology: voices and instruments with double speed.
