    "Eu Também Quero Mocotó" by Erlon Chaves (written by Jorge Ben)


    Erlon Chaves was a maestro responsible for orchestrating Wilson Simonal's biggest hits and served as Elis Regina's lead pianist on tours. "Eu Também Quero Mocotó" was written by Jorge Ben and introduced Erlon as a singer during a made-for-TV song contest. "Eu Também Quero Mocotó" became a big phenomenon, and even today is a samba-rock classic in Brazil. Unfortunately, Erlon's brightest moment was also the worst. Erlon was accused by the military regime of public moral harassment after he was kissed by several blonde dancers on stage, taken into custody, and eventually "suggested" not to perform again. Four years later, in November 1974, Erlon died of a heart attack while buying a record player before visiting his friend Simonal in jail.
