Archive material and source history
Zé Castilho was a Brazilian singer-songwriter who came up in São Paulo in the 1970s. He worked with musicians like Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso, and his band had players like guitarist Franklin da Costa Neto and bassist Beto Gatti.
His music mixed folk, rock, and funk, and he kept putting out records through the late 70s and 80s, including 'Zé Castilho' in 1978 and 'O Cidadão' in 1982. Another track, 'A Historia de Jó,' shows up in his catalog. The authorities sometimes censored his lyrics about social justice, but he kept performing and writing.
