Jorge Ben is the sixth studio album of the Brazilian artist Jorge Ben.
Released in 1969, it is Jorge Ben's first album with Trio Mocotó. The self-titled album is said to have influenced the Tropicália movement, with Gal Costa recording "Que Pena" and "País Tropical" in her first self-titled album, also released in 1969. "País Tropical" turned out to be Jorge Ben's most famous song in Brazil. In the album cover, Jorge Ben pays homage to Brazilian football club Flamengo, with the team's crest appearing on his guitar body.
