I forgot just how good this music was/is. The arrangements and the groove are really fantastico. - mister anchovy (guest) 2-15-2009 3:08 pm
I love the wardrobe of Brazil 66. The brunette singer is Lani Hall from Chicago who had to learn the Portuguese lyrics phonetically and later married Herb Albert.
I just read that the term 'jet set pop' is used to describe this stuff. - L.M. 2-15-2009 5:03 pm

That Day Tripper clip disappeared from youtube a while back, which at least stopped me from watching it repeatedly like some crack-addicted monkey in a lab experiment. Thanks! - Rob (guest) 2-15-2009 9:07 pm
Speaking of crack-addicted monkeys in a lab experiments, I can't stop playing bear and cat marine balls. I even went back to Sally's original game post to remove the link, but that doesn't stop me from Googling it.

I never listened to Sergio Mendez when I was younger.
Not until I got 'Fool on The Hill' just for the sleeve art. Amazing album. Mendez rules.
I think the original version of 'Mas Que Nada' is more intense than the DJ remix version.
