The Heaviest, Rarest, Best Fuzz-Funk-Psych 45s From Brazil!

Following the success of the recently released Psych Funk 101, Brasilian Guitar, Fuzz Bananas should serve as a master class for those entranced by the funky, heavy psychedelic wonders of the Tropicalia movement and all that it spawned. But as compiler Joel Stones writes in his liner notes: “You won’t find Os Mutantes or their maestro Rogerio Duprat on this compilation. There is a reason that the records contained here have never been reissued. Even though you will recognize some of the labels contained here… believe me when I write this: some of the rarest, and
best, examples of fuzzy, funky Brazilian psychedelia came out as promo-only 7” records on these labels.” Each song contained on this album has never been reissued, and has been restored from the best source possible and remastered for near-perfect sound quality. The giant 24 page full color booklet contains a wealth of imagery and detailed annotation and liner notes in both English and Portuguese.
