It had been released another 12 months, and it offered thousands of copies. The 1st LP, A Noite Vai Chegar (1978), using the homonymous strike, was her definitive consecration in the balls from the working-class suburbs. Appointed the Queen from the Brazilian Discothèque, she also experienced the strikes “Hora da União” (Totó Mugabi), “European union Prefiro Dançar” (Totó Mugabi), and “Só Você” (Cleide Dalto’s edition of Paul Greedus’ “Bah”) prior to the disco trend vanished from Brazil in the past due ’70s. Only performing sporadic performances since that time, Lady Zu documented once again in 1988 (the Clear prize-nominated Alma Negra, distributed to Carlinhos Trumpete, Tony Tornado, Luiz Vagner, and Tony Bizarro).
