A classic study of the Tropicália movement.
“Lançado em 1979, este estudo de Celso Favaretto tornou-se um clássico sobre o movimento da Tropicália, leitura imprescindível aos interessados pelo tema. O autor reconstitui os nexos entre as composições, os arranjos e as cenas que caracterizam os gestos particulares dos tropicalistas. Explica também as tendências gerais do movimento e mostra como ele desenhou uma nova estética para a música brasileira. Esta reedição, revisada e ampliada, conta com prefácio do músico e linguista Luiz Tatit. ”
