I believe that Beatles songs are the most covered by other musicians and bands on the planet. Undoubtedly, in the 1960s and 1970s, they played a very important role in influencing the "Jovem Guarda" movement, as well as in Brazilian rock, which would soon emerge, having its peak in the 1980s.
In this post, the rescue is due to the versions and reinterpretations of Beatles songs. At that time Renato Barros was the greatest versionist of Beatles songs. There were also others, such as: Leno (Gileno), Lilian (Lilian Knapp), Paulo César Barros, Lisma Dantas, Antony Middelton, Fernando Adour, Carlos Wallace, Regina Correa, among others.
In 1997, three volumes of compilations of some songs recorded at the time of Jovem Guarda were released in Brazil by the CBS label, now Sony, with the Columbia label. The selection of repertoire and production was made by the great researcher and producer Marcelo Fróes.
Also noteworthy are the beautiful covers illustrated by Frederico Mendes. So we took the opportunity and posted a "2 in 1" disc, containing the songs from volumes 1 and 2, so that friends of the blog can enjoy them.
Below is the list of songs that are part of this series compiled by the CBS label:
