Searching for Brazilian Garage nuggets (time frame is 1965 to 67, before Tropicalia kicked in) , you find some amusing things like one of the most famous groups called Brazilian Bitles (sic) who recorded "Satisfaction". Or take a group that was made to publish their records (quite successfully) under more than 10 different names, tho’ they were still the same (The Fevers). At any rate, I admit most Brazilian 6os singles can only hardly be tagged Garage, and you might miss snotty voices, overridden fuzz and wild screams. In other words, it somehow misses the rough edge. Brazilian pop is closer to The Beatles than to the Stones, it prefers choruses to single voices, and, most of all, it’s never angry! (I don’t know how they manage that). So after skipping the boatload of choral songs backed by just acoustic guitars and bongos around a campfire (which is not really Garage), I’m proud to present 51 tunes in the Garage vein that have remained uncompiled on the various commercial and private comps available. To give my set a fresh kick, I have thrown some girls in the mix, and I’ve enclosed some poppier efforts as well. Wackily, It all ends with an instrumental penned by Frenchman Chopin. I hope you dig, and you will like the booklet as well. Desfrutem, garatos e garotos! (and send me some signal of appreciation / feedback!)
