With no package leaflet or contraindications, that is the music of Jorge Ben Jor. He got interested in music when Bossa Nova was still in charge of the Brazilian and world artistic scenery. Just like the majority of the teenagers at that time, his idol was João Gilberto, whose colloquial voice woke up his admiration. But Jorge Menezes, known in the whole world as Jorge Ben Jor, listened to Luiz Gonzaga and Ataulfo Alves during all of his childhood. At home, his parents used to talk about a certain Nelson Gonçalves who was the crooner of Severino Araújos orchestra. We can also remember from the same time the special voice of Cauby Peixoto who, one day, about decades later, would record one of his songs, Dona Culpa Ficou Solteira.

Jorge Ben Jor was revealed by the song Mas Que Nada and soon confirmed his talent with another great success, Chove Chuva. Two songs which had nothing to do with Bossa Nova or with the traditional samba either. The purist believed his music was too modern. It was hard for the musicians at that time to follow him, so much that his first albums were recorded with a group that played jazz in the Beco das Garrafas, the Meireles e os Copa 5.
