  • Lyrics from “Que Rei Sou Eu” by Herivelto Martins and Valdemar Ressurreição (1945)


    What [sort of] king am I, without a kingdom, without a crown
    Without a castle, without a queen
    After all, what sort of king am I?
    My dominion is small, and it’s restricted
    I only give orders in my district
    Because the king there died.
    I don’t have servants in tailcoats, a carriage sans steward
    And no one kisses my feet!
    My blood is blue, but without traces of royalty
    Samba is my nobility
    After all, what sort of king am I?

    What sort of king am I? A phony king?

    Herivelto Martins composed this samba hoping for a hit for Carnival 1945, and he got it.

    In 1944, the composer Sinval Silva (one of Carmen Miranda‘s favorite composers, who composed “Adeus Batucada“, 1935)  introduced Herivelto Martins to Valdemar Ressurreição, a composer and vocalist from Ceará. Valdemar played his compositions for Martins, hoping that Martins’s Trio de Ouro— an ensemble Herivelto formed in 1937 and recorded with through the 1960s — would record some of them.  One of Valdemar’s songs caught Herivelto’s attention, with the lyrics: “What sort of king am I, who lives like this, without purpose, without a king

    Gade & Waldrido Silva "Gafieira" (Musidisc, 1956) (LP)
    Drummer Walfrido Silva and the pianist known as Gade composed all the songs on this album, with a sprightly vocal chorus singing cheerful, anthemic samba songs such as "Na Cadencia Do Tambor" (which sounds like it may have been intended as a Carnaval song.) There are also a number of instrumentals, some with familiar melodic themes... No indication of who the singers were (particularly the female lead) but regardless of the gaps in information, this is a lovely little record, a nice nostalgic disc from an era long gone.

    Mona Gadelha "Cenas & Dramas" (Eldorado, 1999)
    The second album by Mona Gadelha... Funky rock with a danceable groove on many tracks... A Slipcue reader had written me to recommend Gadelha's work, comparing her to similar artists such as Fernanda Abreu and Ana Carolina, and although Gadelha's production values aren't as slick as those major label gals, I think the reader hit the nail on the head. The modern rock guitars may be a little over-obvious at times, but this is c
