Jorge Ben - Africa Brasil

One of the best brazilian albuns, surely one TOP10 record for my beloved country.

Jorge Ben mix samba with rock, funk with african music, mysticism with umbanda, and everything he could possibly imagine at the time. The result is such a colorful and fantastic experience that even Rod Stewart(yes, THAT Rod Stewart) has plagiarized one of his songs("Taj Mahal") in his song "Da Ya Think Im Sexy". As a result of the lawsuit, Stewart agreed to donate all his royalties from the song to UNICEF.

If you're interested in discovering Brazilian music, this record is a perfect start.
