Tropicália ou Panis et Circencis (1968)
Brazilian songwriters mix bossa nova, psychedelic rock and orchestral pop into a manifesto for the Tropicalia movement, with lyrics that turn playful collage into political comment. The 1968 collaboration brings together Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Tom Ze, Nara Leao, Os Mutantes and Gal Costa, with arrangements by Rogerio Duprat and words by Torquato Neto. For listeners curious about where modern Brazilian music turned.
