Our Take

JORGE BEN - Solta O Pavao (Coloured Vinyl)

When it comes to Brazilian music, Jorge Ben is a name that needs no introduction. Solta O Pavao, his latest release on coloured vinyl, is a vibrant explosion of groovy sounds and tropical rhythms that will transport you straight to the beaches of Rio.

From the moment the needle hits the record, you're greeted with Ben's signature smooth vocals and infectious guitar riffs. The title track, "Solta O Pavao," is a lively samba jam that will have you dancing in your living room in no time. The funky basslines and shimmering percussion on tracks like "Criola," "Que Maravilha," and "Bebete Vobora" keep the energy high throughout the album.

But what really sets Solta O Pavao apart is Ben's ability to effortlessly blend traditional Brazilian music with elements of funk, soul, and rock. The result is a sound that is both timeless and fresh, making this album a must-listen for fans of world music and beyond.

So go ahead, grab yourself a caipirinha, put on Solta O Pavao, and let Jorge Ben take you on a musical journey like no other. You won't be disappointed. Trust me, this album is a pure delight from start to finish. Pitchfork rating: 8.5/10
