Background notes
Archive material and source history
As Delmondes formed in the early 1970s in Rio de Janeiro, playing samba in local bars and clubs. They released their first album in 1973, followed by others like 'Comunicação' in 1975 and 'Bateu Saudades' in 1976. Their song 'Bateu Saudades' became particularly well-known, capturing a sense of longing that resonated with listeners.
The band included musicians like Jorge Aragão, Arlindo Cruz, Sombrinha, and Zeca Pagodinho. They blended traditional samba with some jazz and funk elements, and their lyrics often touched on love and Brazilian society. They recorded a live album at Canecão in 1977 and released 'Luz do Meu Caminho' the following year.
Some members occasionally faced criticism for their political views, which led to occasional censorship. Their music, including songs like 'Ex Que É Ex,' found an audience despite these challenges. They were part of a generation that helped shape Brazilian samba during that period.
