Album Notes & Community Reviews

Curated to introduce international audiences to the brilliant, wildly chaotic life of the Brazilian soul legend, this anthology focuses primarily on his incredibly fruitful 1970s output. The tracks highlight his unique integration of North American funk and R&B sensibilities with native samba rhythms, delivered through an incredibly powerful, gravelly baritone. The release successfully cemented his legacy outside of South America as a towering figure of psychedelic soul.
