This is Boca Livre - Bicicleta (1980), such as the first release, this album is an independent production, with no formal recording company association. Perhaps this is the reason for not receiving so far a CD reissue. I have this album since the release date and I got very surprised this week when notice Antonio Carlos Jobim participation. The Brazilian percussionist Nana Vasconcellos is credited as percussion direction and probably delivers percussion playing. My highlights are Antonio Carlos Jobim participation (both indicated on track list) and the song that gives the album title, Bicicleta, with a beautiful vocal arrangement. Tracks include:

ohhh, zeca, you kind little 'ol green bird! i had hoped we would visit this album -
domo arigato,
jazz-nekko
I was fortunate enough to see this very lineup last month in Sao Paulo, and it was a musical adventure. Their vocal arrangements are incredibly creative.
Nice record, and hard to believe it's never been reissued on CD. Zeca, did it come with an insert, lyrics or more information on the who plays what on each song, like on ther (excellent) first album?
Muito obrigado. Tem mais deles?
Roman,
Boca Livre is really nice and this album is particularly great. Thanks for commenting.
In addition to back and front cover, there is a big picture inside with the four guys in the middle of some bikes with no more info, just the picture.
I can scan this picture, just ask me. Their discography is vast, I just need to check if remaining albums are commercial available. You were a lucky guy on attending the concert in Sao Paulo.
Cheers, zeca
Grande Zeca, este é histórico e só foi lançado "aos pedaços", em coletaneas. E o Folia, vc não tem?
Tem Pena de Sabiá, uma musica linda do Zé com o Xico Chaves... nunca mais veio a público.
ë isso aí, grande abraço.

Que delícia encontrar esse disco!!! Nem consigo fazer um comentário muito racional a respeito dele, pois foi o que me acompanhou quase todos os dias de meus 14 anos... Ligação emocional fortíssima e que me deixou na mão quando meu toca-discos morreu de vez.
Obrigadíssima!
Você trouxe de volta um pouco de minha adolescência perdida que os anos não trazem mais, mas o som é capaz de deixar quase ao alcance da mão.
