Jorge Ben "Ben" (Philips, 1972)
(Produced by Paulinho Tapajos; arrangements by Osmar Milito)
A lovely, lulling acoustic samba album, with a tasteful brass section, funky bass, and cheerful backup chorus. Features "Taj Mahal", the song which has the original melody to Rod Stewart's plagiaristic "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" Stewart got sued for stealing the melody and settled with Ben for an undisclosed large amount of cash. Great record, with a weird, wild, hypnotic mix of acoustic guitar and freaky psychedelic funk noodlings. Challenging, rewarding and fun.
