Junior - Copacabana Sadia

Vinyl LP pressing. Luiz Mendes Jr - or Junior Mendes - was an ubiquitous figure in the Brazilian soul/funk scene of the '70s and early '80s, contributing to compositions for bands such as Banda Black Rio, Tim Maia, Sandra de Sá and many more. This, his only solo album has remained off the map (unless you are a collector of rare Brazilian vinyl). Despite his huge contribution to Brazilian music the LP has remained unreleased until now, 35 years after it's recording.
