Dom Um Romao – Dom Um Romao

Does anyone have an extra sleeve in decent shape for sale?

Any experts on this record want to give me a hand ID'ing my copy?

At first, I thought my version was the original US press. It appears identical in every way. I took it home and realized something was wrong -- track A2 and track B2 were the same (both were Braun Blek Bleu, and so my copy is missing Cinnamon Flower!).

The run-out is a little funky as well. A-Side reads: muse5013a-1-1-1. B-Side reads: mr5013b-re-1-1.

On closer inspection, it seems to be EVER so slightly different from the discogs photo, in that the centre-label does not have that "ridge" around the spindle (the circle which appears to be the size of a 45 adapter).

Has anyone ever had a copy like this in their collection/shop? I love this record and I'm curious to hear more about this pressing, if anyone has the story behind it!

An unbelievably fantastic album, and perhaps the greatest one that Dom Um Romao ever did! Dom recorded this one in America with a blend of Brazilian and New York musicians -- creating an incredible sound that's unlike anything else we can think of! We'd place this record next to the best electric work by David Axelrod, the dopest funk on CTI, and a rare few other jazz funk albums from the 70s -- and the whole thing's completely sublime all the way through! Includes the spare spacey groover "Dom's Tune", the lively dancer "Cinnamon Flower", the jazzy "Family Talk", a great version of "Ponteio", and a take on Sivuca's "Adeus Maria Fulo" with Joao Donato on electric harpsichord! Loads of samples, and players include Joe Beck, Dom Salvador, Sivuca, Mauricio Smith, Portinho, Richard Kimball, and Lloyd McNeill.
