Bicho (Polysemical term, meaning: any animal, except to men; a wild animal; or an insect or bug, in Portuguese. In the late 60s it became an endearment term, commonly used as slang in Brazil) is a 1977 studio album by Caetano Veloso. The album was recorded after Veloso spent a month with Gilberto Gil in Lagos, Nigeria,[3] and the influence of African music such as Jùjú can be heard throughout the album.[4]
