Chaves (album)

Chaves is a soundtrack album for the Brazilian version the Mexican series El Chavo del Ocho, released by labels PolyGram and Polydor Records in 1989.

Most of the songs were adapted from the original soundtrack of the Mexican series by composer Antonio Palladino, known by the pseudonym Tati.

The album had 4 original songs "Aí Vem o Chaves", "Kiko", "Chiquinha" and "Madruga" which were used in the Brazilian dubbing of the series, with the first serving as the opening of the series during broadcasts by SBT from 1993 onwards (replacing The Elephant Never Forgets)[2] and the others serving as insert songs in certain episodes.

[5] In 2018, Mário Lúcio de Freitas was hired to adapt new songs for the Chespirito series during the broadcast by Multishow.

In 1995 an album focused exclusively on the character Quico/Kiko was released in Brazil under the title Discoteca do Kiko.
