1	Look Around (1968) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Sergio Mendes took a deep breath, expanded his sound to include strings lavishly arranged by the young Dave Grusin and Dick Hazard, went further into Brazil, and out came a gorgeous record of Brasil '66 at the peak of its form. Here Mendes released himself from any reliance upon Antonio Carlos Jobim and rounded up a wealth of truly great material ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.29!
2	Fool on the Hill (1968) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Having hit upon another smash formula -- cover versions of pop/rock hits backed by lavish strings, a simplified bossa nova rhythm, and the leader's piano comping -- Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 produced two more chart-busting singles, again turning to the Beatles for sustenance with the title track (number six) and Simon & Garfunkel for "Scarborough ... see all copies from $4.28! new only from $10.29!
3	Classics, Vol. 18 (1987) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 As an overview of Sergio Mendes in both of his A&M periods, the 1987-vintage CD Classics, Vol. 18 is a far more useful collection than the older Greatest Hits. Classics includes ten out of the twelve selections on Greatest Hits, replacing "Day Tripper" and "Night and Day" with "One Note Samba/Spanish Flea," "Bim Bom" and "Song of No Regrets" (a ... see all copies from $8.21! new only from $13.34!
4	Crystal Illusions (1969) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 The sound and band that served Sergio Mendes well on Fool on the Hill remain intact on Crystal Illusions, with few modifications. Dave Grusin is right there with a lush, haunting orchestral chart when needed; Lani Hall is thrust further into the vocal spotlight, as cool and alluring as ever in Portuguese or English. Mendes remained on the lookout ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
5	Four Sider (1988) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Covering the extent of Brasil '66's output from 1966-1972, Four Sider is the best available retrospective for those new to Mendes' successful Brazilian pop outfit (the 45-song Very Best of Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 offers a more comprehensive, yet potentially daunting overview). Typical of the band's original albums, Four Sider includes a mix of ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.66!
6	Ye-Me-Le (1969) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Perhaps the Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 sound was at last beginning to show signs of wear, for not only didn't Ye-Me-Le produce any hits ("Wichita Lineman" reached a lowly number 95), but the album is also less enterprising and fresh-sounding than its predecessors. There is a surprising shortage of Brazilian material, which was always Mendes' most ... see all copies from $7.69! new only from $10.80!
7	Greatest Hits (1970) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.50!
8	Cocktail Mix, Vol. 2 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Certainly the best of Rhino's Cocktail Mix series, focusing on the most dance-oriented aspects of space age pop. This 18-song compilation could be said to stretch the boundaries of that recently coined genre a bit. After all, Mose Allison, Cal Tjader, Brother Jack McDuff, and Pucho & the Latin Soul Brothers were not so much cocktail musicians as ... see all copies from $4.85! new only from $16.65!
9	Love Songs of Burt Bacharach [ Hip-O] (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The Burt Bacharach revival was one of the most pleasing things about pop music in the late '90s, but it did produce an abundance of reissues, many of which seemed superfluous. So, it may be easy to dismiss Hip-O's Love Songs of Burt Bacharach as an unnecessary compilation, especially since it arrived in the summer of 1999, when the revival was ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $8.76!
10	The Best of Sergio Mendes & Brasil '65 (1993) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 see all copies from $7.01! new only from $7.08!
11	More Instrumental Gems of the '60s (1997) more music like this by Various Artists The sequel to the two-CD Instrumental Gems of the '60s is just one disc and lower in quality, though it's still a worthy, intelligently assembled compilation of 20 of the more memorable non-rock instrumental hits of the decade. It's perhaps a bit too heavy on the schmaltzy easy-listening component, with entries from Bert Kaempfert ("Wonderland By ... see all copies from $26.59!
12 view cover	Lounge Music Goes Latin (1996) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $45.55!
13 view cover	Stillness (1971) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Stillness is a concept album -- the title tune opens and closes it in moody stillness -- and a transition piece all at once, for Sergio Mendes seemed to be searching for a viable way out of the Brasil '66 formula. Indeed, "Righteous Life," using a different L.A. rhythm section, is really a folk-rock record, a good one, and a far cry from the bossa ... see all copies from $14.00! new only from $27.21!
14	The Great Arrival (1966) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 The hype-laden title undoubtedly refers to Sergio Mendes' move to America two years before this album's release, settling in Los Angeles, where this record was made. Clearly he was out to make it big in the U.S.A., for this album tries to move a bit away from Brazil by spotlighting Mendes' jazz and pop piano against the elaborate charts of Clare ... see all copies from $11.70!
15	The Beat of Brazil (1967) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 see all copies from $20.00!
16 view cover	The Best Latin Party Album in the World...Ever (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The name pretty much says it all here. The Best Latin Party Album in the World...Ever features every aspect of Latin party music, from classics like José Feliciano's "Light My Fire" and Milton Nascimento's "Cravo e Canela (Clove and Cinnamon)," to trendy chart-toppers like los Umbrellos' "No Tengo Dinero," Kaoma's "Lambada," and los del Rio's mega ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
17 view cover	Greatest Hits of Brasil '66 (1970) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Released along with a slew of other A&M greatest-hits collections, 1970's Greatest Hits takes listeners through a dozen Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 tunes from the albums Herb Alpert Presents through Crystal Illusions. Not all of these were hits -- indeed, not all of them were singles -- and they are not representative of the wide range of Brazilian ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
18	Sergio Mendes' Favorite Things (1968) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 As Sergio Mendes reached the peak of his first A&M period with Brasil '66, his old company, Atlantic, continued to release new instrumental Mendes albums, of which this was the last. As on the Brasil '66 recordings of the time, Mendes exposes fresh material from the '60s bumper crop of great Brazilian songwriters: Edú Lobo, Dori Caymmi, Baden ... see all copies from $23.39!
19 view cover	Herb Alpert Presents Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 [Japan] (1966) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 After bouncing around Philips, Atlantic, and Capitol playing Brazilian jazz or searching for an ideal blend of Brazilian and American pop, Sergio Mendes struck gold on his first try at A&M (then not much more than the home of Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass and the Baja Marimba Band). He came up with a marvelously sleek, sexy formula: dual ... see all copies from $38.53! new only from $38.53!
20 view cover	The Very Best of Sergio Mendes & Brazil 66 (1997) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Although it's not assembled chronologically, the 48-track, double-disc The Very Best of Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 is a near-definitive collection, featuring all of the group's hits plus a good selection of their album tracks and lesser-known singles. For fans who want a little more than a single-disc collection, this is an ideal purchase, even if ... see all copies from $20.75! new only from $20.75!
21 view cover	Passport to Brazil (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Perhaps attempting to capitalize on the new popularity of Brazilian music on the heels of the film Bossa Nova, this six song compilation is culled from the A&M/CTI recordings that were post mortem to the mid-'60s bossa "craze." A different arrangement (by Deodato) of the Getz/Gilberto hit, "Girl From Ipanema" by Antonio Carlos Jobim himself is ... see all copies from $11.42! new only from $11.42!
22 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Sergio Mendes & Brasil '6 (2007) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 As part of MCA's Millennium Collection, this 11-track disc highlights the easy listening Brazilian pop of Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66, originally recorded for A&M in the '60s. Among the previously released tracks are the hit singles "Mas Que Nada," "Constant Rain (Chove Chuva)," "The Fool on the Hill," and "Scarborough Fair." This is a decent ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
