Jorge Ben - Bem vinda amizade

A criminally underrated chapter in Jorge Ben's legendary catalog. Originally released in 1981 with the masterful Trio Mocotó, Bem Vinda Amizade proves that Ben was constantly evolving—weaving together Tropicália sensibilities, Afro-American funk vocabulary, and his signature samba grooves into something unmistakably his own. Killer boogie and disco-tinged samba numbers sit alongside sophisticated slower cuts in an album that rewards repeated listening.
