Background notes

Archive material and source history

Rastafora formed in Salvador, Brazil in 1984, with Ivan Huol on vocals and guitar, Igor Cavalera on drums, Fábio Sampaio on bass, and Bráulio Tavares on percussion. Their music mixed reggae with Brazilian sounds like samba, and their lyrics often carried social commentary tied to Rastafarian beliefs.

In 1989 they released their debut album "Nação Zumbi," which included the song "A Dama e o Vagabundo." The track became popular for its melody and story about a romance between a wealthy woman and a poor man.

Their outspoken lyrics sometimes drew criticism from conservative parts of Brazilian society. The band kept recording through the 1990s and 2000s, with albums like "Sentinela da Noite" in 1993 and "Milonga Africana" in 1996.
