The success of "O Samba Poconé"

The success of "O Samba Poconé" was so great that Skank performed a world tour in several countries: Argentina, Chile, United States, France, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Germany and Italy. During this tour, the band from Minas Gerais played at festivals alongside names like Black Sabbath, Rage Against The Machine and Echo & The Bunnymen. The cover and booklet of the album "O Samba Poconé" (1996) have paintings by the Spaniard José Robles, who was known for his panels on the facades of cinemas in São Paulo.
