Agora É Moda

Rita Lee is a very well known Brazilian singer, once a member of Os Mutantes (from which she was either fired or left, story's vary on this point), later she was backed by the band Tutti Frutti, she recorded a shed load of records and continues touring to this day. I have been playing Mr Bongo's 'Brazilian Beats Brooklyn' compilation from 2006 a stack just lately, it's jammed with brilliant antique Latin gems; from Psych to Disco. Included on the comp is Rita Lee's 'Agora É Moda', a bumping slice of Latin Disco Funk which causes spontaneous dancing... lot's of things incoming...

Love and own this record...
But i think nothing Rita Lee as done after can be copared with what she as done with Os Mutantes. Superb psychedelic fusion music.
