Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating firmly within the sophisticated nexus of Brazilian MPB and American studio slickness, Junior Mendes crafted an undeniably smooth, dance-floor-ready solo effort. The record prominently features tight, syncopated boogie basslines and impeccably polished brass arrangements arranged by Lincoln Olivetti. It has since become a highly sought-after rarity for connoisseurs of international yacht rock and AOR soul.
