Archive material and source history
Velha Guarda da Viradouro came out of the Viradouro samba school in 1973. The group, led by vocalist Zé Luiz, built a following with straightforward renditions of classic samba tunes. Their 1983 album 'Meu Chapéu eu Tiro a Quem Merece' gave them a commercial hit with its title track.
They've released other albums like 'Samba de Raiz' in 1987 and 'É Viradouro, Meu Bem' in 1994. Their songs, including 'Quilombo Dos Palmares' and 'São Francisco - Rio da Integração Nacional', stick to traditional samba forms. The current lineup still features Zé Luiz on vocals.
