Equinox is the second album by Sérgio Mendes and Brasil '66, released in April 1967, with vocalists Lani Hall and Janis Hansen. Review by Richard S. Ginell Equinox continues the scrumptiously winning sound that Sergio Mendes cooked up in the mid-'60s, this time a bit more fleshed out with John Pisano's guitar, a slightly thicker texture, and even an imitation sitar (this was, after all, 1967). Again, the mix of American pop tunes old and new and Brazilian standards and sleepers is impeccable (although it didn't yield any substantial hits), and the treatments are smooth, swinging, and very much to the point... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IRVI7N710k&list=OLAK5uy_l1_NeDsAESWrGYCEBxarVVCpsam6DZeIU #SergioMendes #MPB #BossaNova #Jazz #SpaceAgePop #60sPop #Music

Fool on the Hill is the fourth studio album by Sérgio Mendes and Brasil '66, released in 1968. This is the first album featuring the second edition of Brasil '66. Mendes replaced all of the original band members (with the exception of lead singer Lani Hall). The dismissed members went on to form the short-lived group, The Carnival, which released one self-titled album in 1969. This is also the first appearance of Gracinha Leporace on a Sérgio Mendes album. The album features two top 40 pop singles: the title track and "Scarborough Fair". The traditional English folk song (covered notably by Simon & Garfunkel) was featured in both the trailer and the soundtrack for the 1973 film Heavy Traffic. - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFe0sc8XW94&list=RDqFe0sc8XW94&start_radio=1 #SergioMendes #Brasil66 #BossaNova #SpaceAgePop #Music #TheBeatles #BrazilianMusic #Jazz #60sPop

Jazz 'n' Samba is an album by American jazz vibraphonist Milt Jackson featuring performances recorded in 1964 for the Impulse! label. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "This is an odd LP. The first session is a conventional one... The flip side substitutes two guitars for Flanagan's piano and uses bossa nova rhythms in hopes of getting a hit" - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxJ7sTLEUXA&list=PLn39KQ-d2okUdb-vobuUwcCE66L4cqk50&index=1 #MiltJackson #BossaNova #Vibraphone #Jazz #Music #ImpulseRecords

Cannonball's Bossa Nova is a 1962 album by jazz musician Julian "Cannonball" Adderley. First released on Riverside in 1963.. The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars, stating: "Cannonball's Bossa Nova finds Adderley on a Brazilian vacation, with some of the local talent. Little more than a sweet-natured excursion into some of the indigenous music, it's a pleasing diversion." - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_Zoa1YtPQQ&list=PLoERbxXMyKwbxLNY2AwkNx946ngo7VqV5&index=1 #CannonballAdderley #Jazz #BossaNova #Music #RiversideRecords
