Ogum Xangô

by Gilberto Gil & Jorge Ben

Ogum Xangô cover art

Two towering titans of Brazilian music convened for this legendary, remarkably informal acoustic jam session. 'Ogum Xangô' is a beautifully warm, deeply hypnotic exploration of MPB and Afro-Brazilian Afoxé, relying on wonderfully playful, fiercely repetitive guitar improvisation and a heavily psychedelic, distinctly tropical acoustic atmosphere.
