I just found out that the great Rita Lee passed in May this year.
Such a great artist.
Thank you for the post. It's very nice to see her being remembered here. She was the undisputed queen of rock'n'roll in Brazil in her own right.
From her discography of 30+ albums,
Fruto Proibido is one of my favorite rock'n'roll albums of all time. There's also a live recording of
Brown Sugar which is not bad.

She had a very long career and influenced many Portuguese language artists.
Considered the queen of rock in Brasil (not Brazil as she says in a song), and opened for the Rolling Stones show in 1995
Lovely Rita
The only time I thought I would have the chance to see her performing live was on the Stones' first Brazilian concert, in São Paulo. Unfortunately, her concert was cancelled due to the heavy rain. A portion of her Rio concert can be seen here:
