Considered the biggest interpreter of Noel Rosa, Aracy de Almeida (Aug 19, 1914 - Jun 20, 1988) started singing in churches in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro until being taken to the radio intermediary Custódio Mesquita in 1933. Soon she made radio fame as interpreter of the sambas of Philips, Mayrink Veiga, Ipanema and Tupi, and made history with fabulous interpretations of "Palpite Infeliz" (N. Rosa), "Tenha Pena de Mim" (C. Sousa/ Babaú), "Fez Bobagem (Brave Assis),"Camisa Amarela" (Ary Barroso)…
