Discographical Info

Some time ago the Brazilian recordings of Gastón Bueno Lobo were mentioned here to support the fact that he did not commit suicide after the break up of Les Loups in early 1931 as suggested by some sources. In fact, Lobo retuned to Brazil and continued his career as a musician, both as a staff musician at Rádio Mayrink Veiga until the beginning of 1937 and as a recording artist for Columbia in 1932 and for Odeon in 1938 together with Laurindo Almeida, further he participated in a recording for Victor in 1932 on two sides made by an ensemble named Os Namorados da Lua, probably featuring guitaris Rogério Guimãres as leader. According to info in Ary Vasconcelos’ book on Brazilian music Carinhoso etc. (História e Inventário do Choro) (1984) Lobo passed away in 1939, the circumstances untold. Whether he did commit suicide or not, is still an unsolved question, but let us stay with facts here only and leave speculations on Lobo's biographical fate to others. Thus, below I'll add a list of the Brazilian recordings featuring Bueno Lobo.
