Editor's note

Zimbo Trio's brief, psychedelic Brazilian moment

A 1970 studio album with 'Catavento' and a handful of songs that stuck around.

For their sound, 'Catavento' is the place. For their reach into the songbook, maybe 'Água De Beber'.

Their self-titled 1970 record is the main thing, anchored by 'Catavento' and its psychedelic feel. Zé Renato's vocal style on that track gives it a specific texture. Songs like 'Morro Velho' and 'A Felicidade' filled out the album, and later, their versions of 'Água De Beber' kept showing up in collections.

They recorded one studio album in 1970 with Zé Renato, Luiz Carlos Lira, and Marcos Valle. After that, their public presence was elusive, but songs like 'Wave' and 'Água De Beber' continued to circulate in Brazilian music sets.

Archive material and source history

The Zimbo Trio was a Brazilian group that recorded one studio album in 1970. That self-titled record included the song 'Catavento,' which became their best-known track. The trio consisted of Zé Renato on vocals and guitar, Luiz Carlos Lira on keyboards, and Marcos Valle on bass.

Their music from that period has been described as having a psychedelic quality, with 'Catavento' featuring Renato's distinctive vocal style. The group's recorded output was limited, but songs like 'Morro Velho' and 'A Felicidade' also appeared on their album alongside their signature track.

They maintained a somewhat elusive public presence that didn't always align with commercial expectations of the time.

Beyond their 1970 album, the Zimbo Trio's songs like 'Wave' and 'Água De Beber' have remained part of Brazilian music collections, though the group itself had a relatively brief recording career.
