A superb collection drawn from the first five LP's by Brazil's remarkable Os Mutantes. Taking cues from the Beatles and western psych pop and marrying that to traditional Brazillian forms, born under a repressed political climate Os Mutantes became one of the standard bearers for the tropilcalia movement. Truly great pop music, wildly innovative, psychedelic and both edgy and fun. Killer tracks include 'Bat Macumba', 'A Minha Menina' and Caetano Veloso's lovely 'Baby'. On Luaka Bop.
