Description
Rare and highly sought after in its original format, Os Brazoes self-titled album was originally released on RGE Discos in 1969. It is a psychedelic masterpiece that fuses samba, RnB and Rock n Roll influences using fuzz guitars, synths, percussion, lush vocals and effects.
Os Brazoes formed in Rio de Janeiro in the late 1960s. They backed Gal Costa during her Tropicalia period, yet apparently never recorded in the studio with her. Miguel de Deus, the bands front man, recorded the highly sought after Black Soul Brothers LP in 1977, which became an important record in the Black Rio movement. Mr Bongo released the title track from that LP, on the Brazilian Beats: Brooklyn compilation in 2006 and recently as part of their Brazil 45s re-issue series.
Os Brazoes features covers of Gilberto Gils Pega a Voga, Cabeludo and Jorge Ben and Toquinhos Carolina, Carol Bela The Mr Bongo LP reissue is manufactured in Japan, presented in a super high quality card sleeve with replica original artwork. The CD is presented in a 4 page digi-pack.
