About
A year after this experimental Brazilian outfit’s 1968 debut, <i>Revolver</i>-era Beatles were still a potent influence on the Baptista brothers and lead vocalist Rita Lee. However, this follow-up album’s challenging collage of sounds was delivered with a lighthearted, satirical spirit more akin to Frank Zappa. The theatrical songs blend lush strings and chirping woodwinds with fuzzed-out psychedelic swagger. Emboldened by the voracious eclecticism of Tropicália, instruments like theremin, autoharp and Hammond organ are joined by found-sound snippets recorded from Brazilian television. Impressively, the results cohere into an exuberant psych-pop record. The album’s reputation grew in the decades after its release and was referenced decades later by the likes of Kurt Cobain and Beck.
