"Amor de Carnaval" is in many ways a typical album for Jorge in the ‘60s, full of sweet, sincere, and mainly upbeat songs, with the music mixing samba with elements of bossa nova, swing, pop, and soul. It was recorded while Jorge Ben was living in Brooklin, a neighborhood of São Paulo, with Erasmo Carlos. The album marks a change from Ben’s previous recording because of the constant presence of the electric guitar and its closeness to the sound of “Jovem Guarda”.
