Marvin GAYE / STUDIO RIO Sexual Healing

Following the success of Studio Rio's Brazilian-infused take on Bill Withers' 'Lovely Day,' Mr Bongo is back with another project in the series. This time, the Grammy-winning Berman Brothers drop a top reinterpretation of Marvin Gaye's enduring smoochy 80s classic 'Sexual Healing', which has been reimagined with an all-star Brazilian ensemble including Torcuato Mariano and Pretinho da Serrinha. Gaye's sensual original anthem becomes a joyous samba celebration recorded in Rio with the lush percussion, breezy horns and sunny rhythms you would expect, topped with the original's still stirring vocals. It's a euphoric Rio street party with pure feel-good brilliance.
