Tim Maia<\/strong> was born in 1942 in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro and started his musical career at an early age, along with close friends such as Roberto Carlos or Jorge Ben. Carlos would eventually help him to get a deal for his first single at CBS.<\/p>\n

During the 70s Maia<\/strong> started to incorporate soul and funk elements into his style. After a two-year period involvement in the Racional cult in Brazil, Maia<\/strong>\u2019s funky style was still at its best when he released this album in 1977. It was his first and only recording for Som Livre, the legendary label that became extremely popular due to the many soap operas soundtracks in its extensive catalogue.<\/p>\n

This self titled LP deserves to be shortlisted among Maia<\/strong>\u2019s top records. It features killer tunes like the anthemic \u2018\u00c9 necess\u00e1rio\u2019, undoubtedly one of the best songs in his career, and also boogie gems such as \u2018Ver\u00e3o carioca\u2019 or \u2018Venha dormir em casa\u2019 that show obvious influences by some of the biggest American soul artists of the time. It also contains intimate vocal delights as in the lovely smooth tune \u2018Musica para Betinha\u2019 or even straight funky instrumentals like \u2018Flores belas\u2019. The string arrangements, wah wah guitars, horns, deep vocals\u2026 make this recording a milestone in the so-called \u201cBlack Movement\u201d in Rio, where artists like Toni Tornado, Banda Black Rio and Maia<\/strong> himself were bringing in the funky sounds of America and mixing them with local rhythms like samba.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
