MPB 73 – O Ano Da Reinvenção poster
NR

The series places Brazil and the world in the context of 1973 to show how fertile that period was for local music production. Each episode addresses a specific theme—such as military regime censorship, the rise of samba at the time, Brazilian rock, the importance of iconic album covers, production outside the Rio-São Paulo axis, and the renewal of bossa nova. To this end, the series invites musicians like Odair José, Charles Gavin, and Roberto Menescal, as well as journalists such as Silvio Essinger, Paulo Cesar de Araújo, and Renato Terra, to share behind-the-scenes details from that era. Each account is complemented by extensive research, featuring performances and interviews with artists who defined the year and remain fundamental to the history of Brazilian music.

"Eu sou O Rio", debut album by the band Black Future, appeared on all lists of the best releases of the year it was released, in 1988. A critical success, the band presented a sound that mixed post-punk with "malandragem carioca", but almost no one heard it. To date, there has never been a reissue and is not even available on streaming services. With interviews carried out in celebration of the twenty years since the release of this obscure success, its former members and people close to them break down the history of the band and the album.

The series follows Secos & Molhados, the rock band that shaped music and concepts in Brazil. In exactly twelve months, the group broke all records — selling over 1 million records of their debut album and playing to 25,000 people at Maracanãzinho Stadium. With painted faces and sinuous dance moves, they brought gender issues, androgyny, and the poetry of authors like Manuel Bandeira and Vinicius de Moraes into the country's homes.
