An all-time classic reissued on 7" by Mr Bongo!Side A features a killer latin-Brazilian dance floor fusion, heavy on the horns and piano. Sounds like a Tito Puente workout, with Brazilian backing vocals floated over the top. The AA side features the album version, a much deeper cut with lush textures, breaks, horns and animal noises! Taken from the ‘O Som Psicodelico’ LP. Highly recommended!Mr Bongo · Brazil 45, 46: Luis Carlos Vinhas / O Som de L.C.V. - Tanganica
