The article presents  an incredible rich moment in Brazilian culture and art, a period that goes from the end of the 1960s to the beginning of the 1980s, concentrating in one aspect and concept that allows us to see a sort of underlying common thread that connects, in different ways, many aspects of that period, from cultural and artistic manifestations, to political events and especially in popular culture, specifically in music, but also in behavior and ways of living.
