Info wydawcy:

Let us rejoice: the unique samba-soul-rock sound of legendary '70s band TRIO MOCOTO is back with 'Samba Rock', their first release since 1977. Based in Sao Paulo, the three original members FRITZ, NEREU and JOAO PARAHYBA return to rock the boat, bringing their energy and good vibes into our souls once again. Referred to by many as the 'Fathers of the samba soul beat', the band was formed in the late '60s. TRIO MOCOTO was brought to fame in 1969, when they were invited by JORGE BEN to be his backing band for the entire 'Jorge Ben 1969' and 'Forta Bruta' albums. The former turned out to be JORGE's breakthrough album (it included the original version of his big hit 'Pafs Tropical'). After several hit singles (including 'Coqueiro Verde') under their own name, the Trio went on to record three albums, which have now become collectors' items sought out by DJs the world over. So... thirty years have passed between the release of TRIO MOCOTO's debut album in 1971 and this latest opus, but it proved to be worth the wait. Mocot='s super-original grooves and vocals, their innovative power and tremendous humor and charm are not only intact, they are rejuvenated by FRITZ, NEREU and JOAO PARAHYBA's fresh new take on the style they contributed to create in the Seventies. The album features a host of guest musicians (keyboards, guitars, percussion, horn section), plus a sprinkling of subtle electronic touches. Above all it's the sheer happiness, excitement and enthusiasm radiating from 'Samba Rock' which will definitely make the whole world listen, smile, jump and dance.
