Description
Seu Jorge returns with his first album of original material since “Cru” in early 2005. On the one hand this album manifests his musings on the complex relationship between North and South America, while on the other Jorge says: “Cru was international, this is for the Brazilian audience who wanted some traditional samba, samba rock, ballads and gafiera to dance to and enjoy at weekend barbecues.”
Seu Jorge (Mr. George) made his live UK debut as part of La Linea ’05 at the Royal Festival Hall where the line up consisted of acoustic guitar, cavaquinho, percussion and bass. On his recent triumphant return to the same venue the line up had grown to include keyboards, violin, harmonica, kit drums with Jorge on occasional electric guitar and flute. This is the line up showcased here. Jorge: “The instrumentation is a joke on US culture. Brazil grew up with European influences principally from Portugal but is more influenced now by US. Now we want to be winners like Americans."
Tracks: America De Norte / Trabalhador / Burguesinha / Cuidar De Mim / Mina Do Condominio / Mariana / So No Chat / Samba Rock / Seu Olha / Eterna Busca/ Voz Da Massa.
