About this record
Stamped in the dead wax as 765.121 A and 765.121 B, this 1970 Philips pressing was manufactured by Companhia Brasileira De Discos in Brazil—the original domestic release before later reissues. Demand sharply outpaces supply: 3014 collectors want it against 1191 who own one, yet only 16 copies are listed for sale across the market, making availability the defining constraint on this 10-track samba-MPB album.
What drives its value
The price gradient reflects condition scarcity on this 1970 Brazilian pressing. A Mint copy commands 167.09 USD, while NM drops to 149.50 USD—a narrow gap indicating few truly unplayed examples survive.
The VG+ tier sits at 114.32 USD; VG copies fetch 79.15 USD. Below that, wear accelerates the decline: VG at 79.15 USD, G+ at 43.97 USD, and G at 26.38 USD.
The lowest asking price across 16 active listings is 5 USD, signaling heavily played or damaged stock. The want-to-have ratio of 3014 to 1191 confirms strong collector interest, yet the original Companhia Brasileira De Discos pressing commands premium over later reissues because it carries the earliest matrix codes (200-765121-A-2 JF and 200-765121-B-2 JF) and represents the first Brazilian release.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Philips catalogue number R 765.121 L and the matrix runout stamps 765.121 A (side one) and 765.121 B (side two), or the longer plant codes 200-765121-A-2 JF and 200-765121-B-2 JF. The pressing plant Companhia Brasileira De Discos is printed or embossed in the dead wax.
The label is mono, 10 tracks, and carries no barcode—standard for 1970 Brazilian Philips releases. Grading hinges on groove wear and surface noise: Mint (167.09 USD) shows no play; NM (149.50 USD) has minimal hairline marks; VG+ (114.32 USD) exhibits light surface noise in quiet passages; VG (79.15 USD) shows audible groove wear and light scratches.
Check the jacket for foxing and spine splits, common on 1970 Brazilian pressings due to tropical humidity and age.

Frequently asked
Is this the original 1970 pressing or a reissue?
This is the original 1970 Brazilian pressing on Philips, confirmed by the catalogue number R 765.121 L and the matrix codes 765.121 A and 765.121 B stamped by Companhia Brasileira De Discos. Later reissues carry different matrix strings and pressing plants, making this the first domestic release.
What is a VG+ copy worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 114.32 USD. This represents light surface noise and minimal scratching—playable without distraction but showing clear signs of use. The estimate reflects market data as of the guide's publication date.
Why is the price spread so wide between Mint and VG?
A Mint copy is priced at 167.09 USD while VG sits at 79.15 USD because unplayed 1970 Brazilian pressings are extremely rare; most copies have been played repeatedly over five decades. The jump from NM (149.50 USD) to VG+ (114.32 USD) to VG (79.15 USD) reflects how quickly groove wear and surface noise accumulate on this pressing plant's vinyl.
How many copies are currently available?
Only 16 copies are listed for sale across all markets tracked by the price guide, with the lowest asking price at 5 USD. This scarcity is acute given that 3014 collectors want the record against 1191 who own one, creating a significant supply-demand imbalance.
What does the community rating tell me?
The album holds a 4.7 rating from 183 community votes, indicating strong approval among collectors who own this pressing. This high score reflects both the musical quality of Jorge Ben's samba-MPB compositions and the pressing's historical importance as the original 1970 Brazilian release.
