Armandinho (fado guitarist)
Armando Augusto Freire, known as Armandinho or Armando Freire was a Portuguese fado guitarist and composer.
American travel writer Lawton Mackall in a 1931 book Portugal For Two was the first foreign writer to give an account of Armandinho's performances, but by this time Armandinho was already legendary in Portugal.
He was known for playing on the 12-string Portuguese guitar, and considered as one of the heirs of the fado tradition of Petrolino.Recordings
