Turma do Pagode drops Vol. 1 of “Turma Canta Zeca Pagodinho” with covers like “Ogum”. Tribute recorded at Zeca’s bar bridges samba generations.
Turma do Pagode released the first part of their album Turma Canta Zeca Pagodinho on Thursday, January 8. It follows hits like “Pedindo a Conta” and the medley “Não Sou Mais Disso / Mania da Gente”, both featuring Zeca Pagodinho.
Covers of Samba Classics
The tribute revives Zeca Pagodinho tracks such as Ogum (Marquinho PQD/Claudemir) with Rildo Hora, and O Dono da Dor (Nelson Rufino). Vol. 1 features medleys like “Mais Feliz / Ainda É Tempo Pra Ser Feliz” and “Faixa Amarela / Posso Até Me Apaixonar”.
Composers like Arlindo Cruz, Wilson Moreira, and Dudu Nobre shine. Recorded November 17 at Bar do Zeca Pagodinho in Rio, with set design by Zé Carratu.
This project is a dream come true. Turma do Pagode was born from samba circles, and Zeca has always been one of our biggest references.
