This is one of the last things I would expect to find here. Brazilian instrumental music from the 1960s. Thank you, it reminded me of my father, muito obrigado.

Another musician that left us this afternoon: Mr. Rolando Boldrin.

“If I die before you, do me a favor.
Cry all you want, but don’t fight with God for taking me.
If you want to not cry, do not cry.
If you can not cry, do not worry.
If you want to laugh, laugh.
If some friends tell a tale about me, listen and add your version.
If they praise me too much, correct the exaggeration.
If they criticize me too much, defend me.”

Ohh! This is so sad to hear. Her voice was so silky smooth. She was the musical artist that I remember most played on the radio during the early 70s. I think the adults a generation younger than my parents absolutely adored her.

Mimi Parker’s death has been hitting me pretty hard, I guess, as I keep listening to Low…
