Far Out reissues two cult ’70s Brazilian albums featuring original members of Azymuth

With Victor Assis Brazil, Orlandivo, and legendary producer and multi-instrumentalist Durval Ferreira.

Far Out Recordings is reissuing two 1970s Brazilian “comedy concept” albums from television duo Chico Anysio and Arnauld Rodrigues this June.

Baiano & Os Novos Caetanos (1974) and Azambuja & Cia (1975) are based on characters created by Anysio and Rodrigues, with sounds that mix jazz-funk, soulful samba-rock and MPB.

Baiano & Os Novos Caetanos is a satire on Brazil’s Tropicália movement, while Azambuja & Cia tells the story of Carioca conman Paulo Maurício Azambuja.

Both albums have been remastered for these new viny reissues, with original album artwork.
