Background notes
Archive material and source history
Vicente Gomes was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1926. He started out as a street performer with an acoustic guitar before joining Lupicínio Rodrigues's band in 1945. His big break came in 1953 with 'Menina da Escola,' which became one of those Brazilian songs people just know.
He recorded several albums in the 1950s and 60s, including 'Confissões' in 1956 and 'Seresteiro' in 1963. Other songs like 'Angélica' and 'Luz da Minha Vida' show the kind of romantic, melodic style he was known for. He worked with musicians like Ary Barroso and Nelson Cavaquinho along the way.
In the 1960s, his career faced some political complications. The existing record doesn't go into detail about what happened, but it was enough to create a noticeable break in his momentum.
