ALMEIDA, a town of north-eastern Portugal, in the district of Guarda and formerly included in the province of Beira; situated in hilly country between the river Coa, a tributary of the Douro, and the river Turones, a branch of the Agueda.
Almeida was long one of the principal frontier fortresses of Portugal.

 Almeida, Laurindo
After Almeida received his first payment, Nestor, who was a compulsive gambler, came into their room one late evening, relieved a sleeping Almeida of his cash and promptly lost it all to the tables.
Among the accomplishments in Almeida's remarkably varied professional career before coming to the United States was the contribution he made to the development of a highly refined, cultivated modern choro and samba in the late 1930s by writing, performing and recording a number of them.
Almeida was one of those special people who was always cheerful and positive, always hopeful and grateful, a gentle giant who enjoyed what life offered, never questioning his share, bolstered by a unique sense of humor.

 Stan Getz : Stan Getz with Guest Artist Laurindo Almeida - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Producer Creed Taylor was obviously striking while the iron was hot, getting in as many Brazilian sessions as he could, yet the quality of the music-making remained consistently marvelous.
The rhythm section is an authentically swinging mixture of American sidemen (including Steve Kuhn on piano and George Duvivier on bass) and Brazilian percussionists.
Almeida didn't like to improvise, so his solos stay close to the tunes, inflected with a perfectly matched feeling for the groove along with classical poise.
