This long-overdue reissue of Brylho's self-titled 1983 album is a Brazilian boogie essential that arrives just in time for peak summer deployment. It's born from Rio's Black Rio mo vement and plaits funk, soul, samba and reggae in seamless fashion. The standout hit 'Noite do Prazer' is said to be Rio's answer to George Benson's 'Give Me the Night', and with source material as hot as that, it's no wonder this one remains a soulful, sunlit classic. Elsewhere, the beachy 'Se Voce For a Salvador' and dancefloor weapons like 'Joia Rara' and the rap-funk hybrid 'Cheque Sem Fundo' help make this such a great record with a sound that still feels ahead of its time.
