Brazuca Sounds #82: Lula Cortes & Zé Ramalho - Paêbiru (1975)

In episode #82, we talked about "Paêbiru", one of the most important albums from the Brazilian Psychedelic movement. Inspired by a trip to the archaeological site of Pedra do Ingá in Northeastern Brazil, Lula and Zé Ramalho created a blend of folk experimentation, fuzz guitars, and spatial sound, mixed with Brazilian northeastern regional music.

The album became a cult treasure among collectors after a flood submerged the record label factory, causing the loss of almost all original vinyl pressings of the original batch. Follow our playlist Brazuca Sounds Soundtrack on Spotify.
