Music reviews of Jorge Ben (1969)Music Review: Jorge Ben (1969, Philips/Mercury)
Jorge Ben's sixth album happens to be one of the five most flawless albums of this man's career. If I had to pick one album from this man to be the greatest, it is this one. This album was released on CD twice before in Brazil and Switzerland and has quickly went out of print and has been out of print for almost 15 years. In 1967, Jorge Ben had recorded "O Bidu/Silencio no Brooklin", an album that he recorded when he temporarily left Philips records. He had came back to his home recording company in 1969 after being influenced by Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso, both founders of The Tropicalia Movement. Although their lyrics were considered racy, political and filled with subliminal messages, Jorge Ben's lyrics were different than theirs. Although Jorge's lyrics are esoteric from time to time and are mostly about life, love and black power, he never really got political with his music, with the exception of "Charles, Anjo 45" (a Robin Hood like song about how urban communities have been plagued with drugs and drug use). Yet, some of the lyrics in songs like "Pais Tropical" and "Charles, Anjo 45" were investigated by the Brazilian government.
