More Brazilian Sugar & Classic Latin Soul

C-Heads Magazine

Enjoy this follow-up to Brazilian Sugar: Classci Latin Soul! The Dusty Groove online store wrote about Trio Mocotó’s 1977 self-titled album:

“Trio Mocoto first rose to fame as the funky band behind Jorge Ben on his early 70s classics – the combo that gave him such a soulful sound – and here on their own, they sound pretty darn great – with a style that follows the same evolution as Jorge's own sound at the time! The core elements are still a mix of funk, samba, and soul – but there's also a slightly warmer sound to the production – one that really ties the whole thing together, and maybe gives the group even more force than before! Riffing guitars snap alongside the lively percussion – and the trio trade voices in a mighty nice way – sometimes with a bit of backup from other singers too.”
