Música P/ Acampamentos
compilation album by Legião Urbana
Música P/ Acampamentos (transl. Music For Camping) is a double live compilation by Brazilian rock band Legião Urbana. Released in 1992, it consists of previously unreleased live recordings by the band and one previously unreleased studio song: "A Canção do Senhor da Guerra".
Background and curation
The band had always been reluctant about releasing a compilation, which culminated in the members' feud with label EMI-Odeon when it tried to edit a compilation without talking to them first.
The album would only come out their way, and ended up being produced in a rather timely occasion, since the previous studio album V tour had been prematurely aborted and the members looked for ways to earn money while vocalist, acoustic guitarist and keyboardist Renato Russo searched for help to get rid of drugs. Meanwhile, they wanted to offer something less commercial sounding to fans, in order to compensate for the cancellation of so many shows, and that's when they decided to gather live recordings, almost all of which were previously unreleased.
The songs were recorded during lives performances at Parque Antártica Stadium, in São Paulo, in August 1990; in Morro da Urca, Rio de Janeiro, in August 1986; some sessions at radio stations Transamérica FM (Rio de Janeiro), in 1988 and 1992 and Rádio Cidade (Rio de Janeiro), in 1992; and the band's Acústico MTV album, in 1992. The booklet says all tracks (except "A Canção do Senhor da Guerra" and "Mais do Mesmo") were recorded in only one take and that the original tapes were not enhanced, except for edits, mixes and sound filtering.
The art project was done by Fernanda Villa-Lobos and Gualter Pupo, and the album cover was drawn by drummer Marcelo Bonfá. It was mixed in November 1992. Former bassist Renato Rocha and touring musicians are also featured.
