She recorded an album of breezy bossa nova duets with Veloso in 1967, which served as both of their debut albums. Soon after, Costa became a part of the revolutionary musical movement known as Tropicália. And by 1969, Gal was one of the most potent and popular voices in that group, scoring nationwide hits like Divino, Maravilhoso and Não Identificado while also pushing her sound to the extremes of psychedelic rock. See the second album she released that year, Gal, for a dose of some of the era’s wildest sound.
