Jorge Ben Jor - " Por Causa deVocê, Menina / Chove Chuva"

.


Born in Madureira and raised in Catumbi, Rio de Janeiro’s suburbs, Jorge enjoyed singing with the church choir and going out with carnival bands from an early age. In his teens, he was a given a guitar and started playing bossa nova and rock’n’roll with it. In the 60s, he performed at Beco das Garrafas, which later became a legendary nightclub area in Copacabana and home of the bossa nova movement. And that’s where he was spotted by a producer, who promptly offered him a record deal. Soon, in 1963, the first single was out, featuring "Mas Que Nada" and "Por Causa de Você, Menina", performed along with the group Copa Cinco.
