Brazil 70 - After Tropicalia
Soul Jazz
SOUL/FUNK
‘Brazil 70 - After Tropiclia’, SOUL JAZZ RECORDS follow up to “Tropicalia: A Revolution in Sound” mixes Brazilian funk, rock, samba and soul in equal measures.
This album features music from Brazil released in the 1970s directly influenced by the musical and intellectual ideas of Tropicalia, the cultural movement that began in 1968 and lasted little more than a year.
Musicians and artists from the Tropicalia period of the late-60s such as GILBERTO GIL, RITA LEE (OS MUTANTES lead-singer) and GAL COSTA entered this new phase mixing US and UK rock and psychedelia influences with Brazilian folk and roots music alongside a wealth of like-minded new artists such as NOVOS BAIANOS, RAUL SEIXAS, NELSON ANGELO, JOYCE and more.
With the constant threat of imprisonment, these artists nevertheless managed to produce radical music that, like Tropicalia before it, managed to deal with questions of identity, sexuality and society in a revolutionary manner. ‘Brazil 70’ chronicles this period in Soul Jazz Records’ customary style with extensive sleevenotes, exclusive photography and killer tunes.
