Marconi Notaro - No Sub Reino Dos Metazoarios. CD. (Time Lag - 032 CD) First ever reissue of this totally brilliant post-Satwa 1973 Brazilian private press featuring the core trio Lula Côrtes, Marconi Notaro & Zé Ramalho. recorded just months after lula & lailson had released Satwa, the whole album gushes forth with a sun baked spirit of the highest level, mixing tropicalia tinged folk-beat groovers, satwa style bliss trance ragas, paébiru favored lysergic jungle psych, and even a raging fuzz/wah soaked garage psych rocker. Extremely mind melting from start to finish, with huge washes of rippling tape delay, electric & acoustic guitars, 12 string, tranced folk percussion, passionate yet mellow vocals, liquid electric bass, acid effects everywhere, and of course lula’s mercurial & heart melting tricórdio (an instrument he made himself, something like a sitar/dulcimer hybrid). beautiful, melancholy and joyous all at the same moment, this is an album that after 33 years still sounds completely fresh & unique... Booklet contains original notes, rare photos and book covers, marconi’s last poem written the day before his death, and extensive new notes & biography by lula córtes.
