acabou chorare













Os Novos Baianos gave Brazilian Pop Music one of its most dramatic expressions with the samba rhythms and rock fusion edge of their celebrated second album.  They were a hippie music collective from the Brazilian state of Bahia (hence their name "The New Bahians") that dabbled in psychedelia and Brazilian folk in the vein of Tropicália.  Inspired by their work with João Gilberto, they delved deeper into the roots of Brazilian music. Gilberto's daughter Bebel remembers how the band got the title for their new album:  "I used to cry, cry, cry when I was a child and one time, I fell over and hurt myself. My father was very worried.  Then I stopped crying and said, 'Acabou chorare,' which means 'It's finished.' Novos Baianos were there, and they named their album after what I said. It is very hippy, very interesting, and very pure. My father would kidnap me in the middle of the night while my mother was asleep and take me to their country house outside Rio."  

The album was recorded with Moraes Moreira on vocals and acoustic guitar; Baby Consuelo on vocals, cabasa, triangle and maracas; Paulinho Boca de Cantor on vocals and tambourine; Pepeu Gomes on electric guitar, acoustic guitar and craviola; Jorginho on cavaquinho; Baixinho on bass drum; Dadi on bass; Bolacha on bongos.    Another Brazilian group A Cor do Som would perform live with Os Novos Baianos and played on the album including Consuelo's husband virtuoso Pepeu Gomes on electric guitar; Dadi on bass; Jorginho on drums and bongos; Baixinho on drums and bongos. 'Acabou Chorare' became one of the most influential albums in the history of Música Popular Brasileira.
