This is a 1978 compilation album by Jorge Ben, Brazil’s samba rock king. Released primarily for distribution in Western countries such as the U.S. and the U.K., the album serves as a sort of greatest hits collection. It features 12 carefully compiled tracks that offer a sweeping look into Jorge Ben's standout work from the 1970s, centered around his signature sound of percussion and acoustic guitar. Included are the iconic opening tracks A1 and A2 from his early masterpiece Força Bruta, originally released in 1970. This period of Ben’s career is marked by a unique sense of melancholic saudade. Highly recommended.
A1: Oba, La Vem Ela
A2: Ze Cangica
