Background notes
Archive material and source history
Camelos do Asfalto formed in Rio de Janeiro in 1977 with Marcelo Nova on vocals, Luiz Antônio on bass, Léo Jaime on guitar, Eduardo Morelenbaum on drums, and Flavio Venturini on keyboards. Their name, which translates to Asphalt Camels, came from the urban environment around them. They put out their self-titled debut album the next year, and the single 'Borracho' got them some attention.
Their lyrics often dealt with social issues, which made sense given the political climate in Brazil at the time. They had other songs like 'Cheap Jet Blues' and 'Funk Fusca Rock Show' that showed their mix of rock with other styles.
