ANTÓNIO SEVERINO
Discosete, 1986, C-379
A. Severino was a famous fadista from Setubal near Lisbon. He died at the age of 84 this year. Maybe not the most famous here among other great fadistas like A. Rodrigues or Marceneiro he had a long career recording more than 300 songs, not all fados, most of them dedicated to the sea and sailors. He had no family roots in fado though.
He's accompanied by Jorge Fontes a big name for the portuguese guitar and a small orchestra.
