The American label Rhino Records, specialized in rare reissues, has released the 4-CD box set Nuggets II: Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond, containing tracks from 90 obscure 60’s bands. The Brazilian band Mutantes had their song Bat Macumba (Gil/Caetano) included in the package. The box set is the follow-up to the legendary collection Nuggets, which is comprised of late 60’s American bands. The sequel opened the scope for international bands; along with Mutantes there are bands from Sweden, Japan and the Czech Republic.
