Paulinho Nogueira is certainly not the most prominent name of bossa nova but this album from 1972 could surprise you : first class arrangements (Rogerio Duprat, José Briamonte, Luiz Arruda Paes) on beautiful songs mostly penned by the guitarist himself, this album is a very solid listen from start to end. if Rogerio's touch is immediatly recognizable and makes him almost a co-composer, the big chill for me is given by the elegant arrangements of José Briamonte on the songs Um, dois, trés and P'ra você que vai chegar, with their discreet samba feel.
