Editorial Reviews

"Rita Lee of Os Mutantes and her friend Lúcia Turnbull's first outside project, these recordings were done for Philips in 1973. Cilibrinas Do Éden have played at Os Mutantes show in May 1973, at Palácio de Convenções do Anhembi, in São Paulo. It was Cilibrinas' first gig. At this show, Rita and Lúcia played with all the Os Mutantes backline, the show appeared to be a psychedelic edge with Rita and Lúcia dressed like some outside aliens for that time. They also dressed in colored clothes and feathers like a progressive rock band. Never officially released on vinyl or CD, Now a group of Brazilian fans with European residence pick the recordings and put them in this deluxe vinyl format, with only 500 numbered copies done. Also available in papersleeve CD in the same amount of copies. This release contain also two rare outtakes from Os Mutantes. You will certainly dig this if you like Mutantes: these recordings are a mix of the psychedelic Os Mutantes with some glam-rock freakness. Fantastic, professionally remastered sound, unbelievable material for all the Os Mutantes fans, and one of the best lost albums of Brazilian psychedelia!"

"Cilibrinas Do Eden"
(Philips, 1973)
----------------------------------------------
This is an amazing album -- a psychedelic-rock/Brazilian tropicalia reissue featuring Rita Lee of Os Mutantes along with her friend Linda Turnbull, with backing from the other members of Os Mutantes and various Brazilian rockers. This is a wild album, harder rocking and more consistently electrifying than any of the Mutantes albums, or any of Lee's early solo outings with the band Tutti Frutti. It's a pretty cool mix of hard rock (ala Alice Cooper) and acid-prog ala Mutantes. Reissued in 2008 in a limited run of 500 copies -- definitely worth snapping up if you're into Brazilian psych-rock.
