Mingos & Os Samurais is the fifth studio album by Portuguese musician Rui Veloso, released on 7 August 1990 by EMI-Valentim de Carvalho. It is a concept album that tells the story of a small suburban band during the 1960s and the 1970s. It is Veloso's most commercially successful album and one of the best-selling albums of all time in Portugal. The album reached number one in the Portuguese album charts and was at the top for 24 weeks. It was certified 7× platinum by the AFP and sold 280,000 copies by early 1992, which was at that time a sales record for a Portuguese artist. The singles "Não Há Estrelas no Céu" and "A Paixão" were very successful as well.
