Also, Gato Barbieri is from neighboring Argentina:

You're right about Flora Purim and Eumir Deodato. Also from Brazil, but in a completely different category, are unsuspected names like Morris Albert, Tony Stevens, Michael Sullivan, Steve MacLean and others. With the exception of the first, they are known only locally, however.
