Cry Babies

Brazil

An early formation of Brazilian funk greats Banda Black Rio, Cry Babies pioneered Brazil’s funk fascination in the late sixties and early seventies, paving the way for the likes of Jorge Ben, Dom Salvador, Trio Mocotó and Azymuth: with fat funky drum breaks, big round bass, touches of psychedelic Brazilian surf, and the kind of hazy soulful arrangements that could only emerge from Rio de Janeiro.
