Tens years in the musical life of any musician is a good amount of time, but when the artist is Jorge Ben, the importance of this span takes on greater significance. There are many offerings of his favorite songs available these days, but this one comes with a particularly enjoyable twist – most of the songs are in medley form, a concept this MBP star uses frequently in his powerhouse concert performances around the world. Each medley pulls together top songs in close chronology, so early hits like ‘Por Causa de Vocé’, ‘Menina’, ‘Chove Chuva’ and ‘Mas Que Nada’ come to your ears with a new appreciation of Brazil’s pop king and his unique style. One of our favorites is the grouping of ‘Pais Tropical’, ‘Fio Maravilha’ and ‘Taj Mahal’ - all delivered with buoyant energy. And there’s some history here, too: ‘Mas Que Nada’ became the signature song for Sergio Mendes and Brazil 66, likewise ‘Zazueira’ for Elis Regina, while ‘Taj Mahal’ brought an entirely different kind of signature – Rod Stewart’s, to be specific – on a really large check made payable to Jorge Ben Jor after the British rocker lost his court case over plagiarism charges on his hit song ‘Do You Think I’m Sexy’. Fans of Jorge Ben Jor will flock to this CD and with good reason – within the plastic confines of a jewel case, its as close to seeing him perform live as you can get.
