Editor's note

Os Buenachos, Porto Alegre's satirical samba-rock crew

A 1970s Brazilian band that mixed samba, rock, and sharp political humor.

For their blend of humor and craft, start with 'Baile da Goteira'. Then try 'Castelhana' to hear how they could stretch out a melody without losing their bite.

They started in Porto Alegre bars, blending samba and rock with lyrics that jabbed at political corruption. That mix gave them a signature hit like 'Baile da Goteira' and kept songs like 'Castelhana' in rotation. Their sound felt specific to a moment but stuck around because the craft and the jokes held up.

Ivan Lins, Bebeto Alves, and Nei Lisboa formed the group in the 1970s, playing local clubs. They put out albums like 'Os Buenachos' in 1975 and 'Malagueta, Perus e Bacalhau' in 1978. Their 1979 album 'Baile da Goteira' landed their biggest track, but other songs showed their range from the satirical to the sentimental.

Archive material and source history

Os Buenachos formed in Porto Alegre during the 1970s, with Ivan Lins, Bebeto Alves, and Nei Lisboa as founding members. They started playing in local bars and clubs, where their unconventional style mixed samba, rock, and folk with sharp, satirical lyrics. Their songs often poked at political corruption and social absurdities, which resonated with many Brazilians at the time.

Their 1979 album 'Baile da Goteira' gave them their signature hit, but other tracks like 'Castelhana' and 'Nos Braços do Gaiteiro' show their range.

They released several albums in the late 1970s, including 'Os Buenachos' in 1975 and 'Malagueta, Perus e Bacalhau' in 1978. Songs like 'Baile Campeiro' and 'Chimarrão e Saudade' have stayed in rotation among fans who appreciate their particular blend of humor and musical craft.
