Jorge Ben’s 1969 album is a rare blend of genres — samba, soul, funk, psychedelia — and it’s got a timeless energy. Whether you’re already into Brazilian music or just looking for something fresh and soulful, Jorge Ben’s 1969 album is a joyous entry point.

It includes the joyous anthem ‘País Tropical’ along with classics like ‘Take It Easy, My Brother Charles,’ ‘Que Pena,’ and ‘Criola,’ making this album one of the most brilliant records to emerge from Brazil’s fertile late-’60s music scene.
