Os Mutantes played a long live performance in the at London's Barbican Arts Centre, sparking off a brief tour after 30 years apart. In these clips from the live CD/DVD recording, they're in wonderful form -- shimmering, richly raucous pop music wound with colourful rock'n'roll, returning to the songs that made them musical legends. No wonder the crowds scream as they play.
