Trio Mocoto - Trio Mocoto

Classic Brazilian album from 1977, featuring the incredible 'N�o Adianta' and a brilliant cover of Jorge Ben's 'Que Nega � Essa'.

Luiz Carlos Fritz (Fritz Escov�o), Jo�o Parahyba and Nereu Gargalo aka Trio Mocot� are most well-known as Jorge Ben Jr.'s backing band. They played on several seminal Jorge Ben LP's � his self-titled from 1969, For�a Bruta in 1970 and Negro � Lindo in 1971.

Trio Mocot� were also key players in the development of the 'samba rock' sound � a fusion of samba, soul and rock influenced by music from the USA.
