Pirate recordings of the shows were already circulating among fans, which was an additional reason for EMI to release the project.

But the album only began to be prepared when journalist Marcelo Froés found the original tapes.

[4] Fóes had been assigned by vocalist, acoustic guitarist and keyboardist Renato Russo's father to investigate his solo and band musical collection.

The other members, Dado Villa-Lobos (guitar) and Marcelo Bonfá (drums), also supported his work.

Villa-Lobos and Bonfá gave him some additional tapes they had at home and he ended up possessing over 100 copies.
