Brand new and sealed. Jorge Ben Africa Brasil exclusive Vinyl Me Please edition produced as a Limited Edition on 180g yellow vinyl.
Notes on the packaging:
Like Bob Dylan leaving the folk scene behind, strapping on an electric guitar, and assaulting the crowd at Newport with a set of searing electric blues-rock a decade earlier, Jorge Ben's Africa Brasil sent shock waves through his loyal audience.
On Africa Brasil, Ben abandoned his signature swinging acoustic 'samba-soul' or 'samba-rock' style, switched to an electric guitar, and transformed his approach, delivering a set of tunes that melded the central elements of his approach to samba with hard-driving funk grooves.
Brashly declaring his Afro-Brazillian identity over electric guitar-driven funk grooves, he moved on from the acoustic sambas upon which he built his reputation, and within the next year, he was in London recording at Island Studios establishing himself as a major figure on the blossoming world music scene.
Includes a 12" x 12" linear notes booklet and a limited edition art print.
