Finally!!!

"After years of searching for this Cd I finally found it! Over the years I found several CDs of Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 containing only "Greatest hits", wondering why this and "Equinox" haven't been issued on CD. Today I recieved both and I am delighted! Great music, it's a joy to listen!!!"
Shiny and still new sounding

"The world always sounds like a wonderful place when you're listening to Brasil '66. This was their first album, a stripped down version of their later sound with just a jazz piano, a Brazilian rhythm section, and some wonderful voices. Mendes was a jazz musician when he conceived of this album, and it makes no concession to rock and roll other than a cover of "Daytripper." It's firmly rooted in the pop tradition right down to the cool album cover, in which the musicians wear suits and ties in a jungle setting.Special favorites are "The Joker," a sultry version of Henry Mancini's "Slow Hot Wind" and the driving "Berimbau" which starts strong and only picks up the pace. This album is like a cool breath of fresh air. You'll never get tired of listening to it."
One of my parent's favorite albums

"When I played this album for the first time, I fell in love with it. My favorite cuts are Mas Que nada, Going out of my head, and daytripper."
