 Amazon.com: Omelete Man: Music: Carlinhos Brown   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Brazilian singer and percussionist Carlinhos Brown intends the title Omelete Man as a comment on the mix-and-match ethos of world-pop culture, a common theme for artists influenced by the '60s Tropicalia movement.
(Brown was a member of Tropicalia pacesetter Caetano Veloso's band.) Omelete Man is a glossy amalgam of Brazilian elements, reggae beats, MTV-ready dance-rock, Magical Mystery Tour grooves, and, on "Cachorro Iouco," a damn impressive football-chant/metal/drum-showcase hybrid that's sequenced safely away from "Musico's" not-so-ironically lush string arrangement.
Carlinhos Brown is a musical genius, inventive, innovative, capturing the imagination and stirring the soul.

 Carlinhos Brown discography - Slipcue.Com Brazilian Music Guide
Originally a member of Caetano Veloso's band, Carlinhos Brown has made (and continues to make) many guest appearances on other MPB artists albums, adding a bit of percussive spice to many a Brazilian pop album.
Brown revels in the explosiveness and joy of Cuban son, and takes chances with the genre that many native Cubans would not, adding the sort of layered, high-tech production and little sonic tweaks that he'd previously brought to Brazilian pop.
As the album progresses, Brown drifts into material that's closer to the sleek, Brazilian-based world-pop fusion that he's been perfecting the last few years, but the opening tracks are a real change of pace on an album that is without question one of his strongest so far.

It seems nearly every country has a star that represents its "voice of the people" (i.e., Jamaica's Bob Marley, Senegal's Baaba Maal), and Carlinhos Brown, who's often referred to as "the Brazilian Prince," fulfills that role in his homeland.
Alfagamabetizado, produced by Wally Badarou and Arto Lindsay, finds Brown mixing Brazil's rich traditional musical heritage with a variety of modern music forms to great effect.
