rare funky songs from brazil on double 12 inch vinyl.

blue vinyl with dl code (ps not for all tracks ... tracks from rita morar und mark stewart are not available on the dl code)

a tripped-out batch of hard jamming tracks from ex-mutante rita lee – recorded with assistance from all the members of the group at the time, but in a mode that’s quite different overall! lee is clearly the star of the show here – singing all lyrics with a much fiercer vocal approach than on her earlier solo album – pushing things hard to keep up with the jamming keyboards of arnaldo baptista and guitar of sergio dias – both of whom are working with the energy that would show up in the mutantes styles in the years after lee departed. one of the most compelling aspects of the record is the structure of the tunes – less conventionally rockish overall than the direction os mutantes were moving towards – and still with that strong dramatic flair that lee always provided when in the group. titles include -vamos tratar da saude-, -amor branco e preto-, -superficie do planeta-, -teimoisia-, -tapupukitipa-, -beija me amor-, and -frique como-.

180g brazilian polysom re-issue of the polydor original.
the second set of madness from the legendary os mutantes – and like the first, an album done in close collaboration with arranger/producer rogerio duprat, whose talents add a new level of genius to the record! the album’s got a compelling mix of styles that strikes out on the very first tune – a playful pastiche that’s partly postmodern, partly psychedelic, and still tremendously powerful decades later – even if you can’t understand most of the lyrics! styles are just about impossible to pin down, but that’s what makes the record so unique and essential – and if you ever needed one album to convince you of the mindblowing energy taking place during the tropicalia years, this one may well be it! a few tracks are written by tom ze, and titles include -dom quixote-, -dia 36-, -magica-, -rita lee-, -algo mais-, -qualquer bobagem-, and -fuga no ii-.

180 gram brazilian polysom re-issue of the polydor original.
one of the hardest rocking albums ever cut by os mutantes – a record that’s got a slightly ironic take on rock and roll styles of the time – still performed with the sense of drama and humor that always made the band so great! rita lee and arnaldo baptista are still in the group at this point, and they’re working amidst a heavy wave of guitars that echo out with a bit of keyboards and some rhythms that are chunky enough to almost be called funky at times, but sweet and dreamy at others – all produced with a flanged-out finish that makes the whole thing sound great!

razor-sharp production of the highest order from two of the masters of the early 80’s rio de janeiro boogie sound, robson jorge and lincoln olivetti.
both were highly acclaimed music producers of the time, starting around the mid-70’s. over the course of his career olivetti worked with artists including rita lee, erasmo carlos, don beto, marcos valle, tim maia, gilberto gil, gal costa, sandra sa, painel de controle and many more.
the album takes in mid-tempo, aor, boogie and even latin all way through the tempo’s to ultra-quick prince style disco-funk workouts. includes several standout tracks – ‘aleluia’ and ’ginga’ being our two favourites. synths, horns, claps, drum machines, guitars, keys and vocal harmonies combine effortlessly.
originally released in 1982 on som livre, brazil. replica original reproduction.
