4.0 out of 5 stars
A cool Brazilian funk/soul album, January 1, 2006
This review is from: A Onda E Boogaloo (Audio CD)
This 1969 album, originally released on Odeon Records, is one of the better Brazilian funk albums of its time. Eduardo Araujo started his career as a teenybopper rocker, and later went psychedelic and then mainstream pop. In between, he recorded this soul-drenched set, which features several songs by '70s funk star Tim Maia. Maia also wrote Brazified arrangements for North American soul songs by Arthur Conley and Smokey Robinson... Okay, it's not P-Funk or anything, but by Brazilian standards, this was pretty smokin'. Worth checking out.
