ROTA-MAR

Mainly known to DJs for the funk groover "Te Queria", Rota-Mar is the first solo album by the charismatic Z?ca do Trombone. During a vertiginous career which started in the late 60s, Z?ca was a permanent member of Wilson Simonal's band, toured with Luiz E?a's Sagrada Fam?lia (alongside Joyce, Nan? Vasconcelos, Nelson Angelo and others), recorded the seminal Brazilian funk "Coluna do Meio" for his joint effort with Roberto Sax, and played and recorded for some of the big names of Brazilian music such as Tim Maia or Martinho da Vila. Particularly for samba artists such as Alcione, Leci Brand?o or Moreira da Silva, Z?ca do Trombone was the trombonist of choice.
