1	Herb Alpert Presents Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 (1996) more music like this by Sergio Mendes 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 $8.00! new only from $9.05!
2	Ultimate Collection (2006) more music like this by Vikki Carr see all copies from $8.15! new only from $8.15!
3	The Very Best of Marc Antoine (2003) more music like this by Marc Antoine Though his simplistic arrangements and often-repeated themes mark him as an artist more likely to be heard in an elevator than a jukebox, Marc Antoine is among the best of the mood music merchants active during the '90s and 2000s. A soft-toned player of the Spanish guitar, Antoine has a gift for intricate yet non-complex playing as well as strong ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
4	Austin Powers (1997) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Mike Myers' ultra-mod '60s spy spoof Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery skillfully wrings humor from the differences and the similarities between the '60s and '90s, so it isn't surprising that the soundtrack balances '60s pop hits with '90s songs that wryly rework those swinging styles. Naturally, the original Burt Bacharach songs sound ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.96!
5	Nova Bossa: Red Hot on Verve (1959) more music like this by Various Artists In the hope that Red Hot + Rio would ignite interest in Brazilian music within the X-Generation, Verve simultaneously released a historical survey with similar cover art, similar noise interludes between tracks, and occasionally, the same tunes (do not be confused!). Although some of the same old stuff reissued a thousand times before is here (the ... see all copies from $9.91! new only from $9.91!
6	Next Stop Wonderland (1998) more music like this by Original Soundtrack For the film Next Stop Wonderland, director Brad Anderson hit upon the idea of using Brazilian music to color the background of a searching-for-love tale. So this soundtrack album combines original music by Claudio Ragazzi with new recordings of the standards by Bebel Gilberto and Vinicius Cantuaria and various scraps, often obscure ones, from ... see all copies from $4.39! new only from $11.15!
7	The Essential Perrey & Kingsley (1988) more music like this by Perrey & Kingsley Electronic music became a prominent genre in the 1970s thanks to the work of groups like Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream, but they weren't the first groups to pioneer this sound. Some of the earliest popular electronic music was created by the duo of Jean Jacques Perrey and Gershon Kingsley. However, the music this avant-garde duo created wasn't ... see all copies from $16.32! new only from $16.32!
8	Tenderness (1994) more music like this by Al Jarreau Rather than do a strictly studio or strictly live album next, Jarreau recorded a "live in the studio" affair before an invited audience -- and this time he would not be bothered with the latest new mediocre R&B tunes. Spreading his net from the Gershwins through Lennon-McCartney to Jorge Ben, Elton John and himself, Jarreau assembled a core band ... see all copies from $1.99!
9	Compact Jazz: Best of Bossa Nova (1987) more music like this by Various Artists Ah, boss nova American style: a sea of white dinner jackets shimmying to Getz, poolside. Beyond images from many a bossa soundtracked ‘60s movie, though, the music itself was something to behold. Teaching jazz a bit more about it's already graceful mien, bossa nova found its most regal stateside purveyor in Stan Getz. Getz's classic work with both ... see all copies from $5.90!
10	Pure Brazil: Caipirinha (2004) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $13.96! new only from $13.96!
11 view cover	Timeless (2006) more music like this by Sergio Mendes It's easy to think that since Santana made his big comeback using a lot of contemporary pop stars it would become the formula for the artists of yore to edge their way back into the limelight. Sergio Mendes, the best-selling Brazilian recording artist of all time, hasn't made a platter in eight years. He plays piano on a Black Eyed Peas track -- ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $7.50!
12 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 $38.38! new only from $38.38!
13 view cover	Soul Espanõl (1966) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Oscar Peterson augmented his regular working trio of the time (bassist Sam Jones and drummer Louis Hayes) with Henley Gibson on congas, Marshall Thompson on timbales, and Harold Jones as an added percussionist for this release, which focuses mostly on the music of Brazilian composers (so the title Soul Espanõl is a bit misleading). With the surge ... see all copies from $7.88! new only from $7.88!
14 view cover	Her Essential Recordings: The Empress of African Song (2006) more music like this by Miriam Makeba The packaging on this 40-song, two-CD anthology of this major South African artist -- most of it taken from recordings spanning the mid-'50s to late '60s, though there are a few from the 1970s too -- leaves something to be desired. The tracks are sequenced so that they jump back and forth chronologically, and while there are well-written liner ... see all copies from $18.88! new only from $18.88!
15 view cover	Music to Watch Girls By (2000) more music like this by Al Hirt see all copies from $4.12!
16 view cover	Double Rainbow (2006) more music like this by Nanny Assis Nanny Assis has been an in-demand session drummer and percussionist for years, but Double Rainbow is his debut recording as a solo artist. It reveals him to be a very fine arranger and bandleader and a pretty good vocalist -- though one who is more convincing at faster tempos than at slow ones, and more effective in Portuguese than in English. The ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $14.47!
17 view cover	Uncovered (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $7.99! new only from $15.92!
18 view cover	Pure Bossa Nova (2006) more music like this by Tamba Trio No one can argue that this collection of cuts by Brazil's Tamba Trio isn't a welcome one. It contains 14 tracks from albums recorded between 1962 and 1964, when the group was riding high in its native country and breaking through in Europe, Japan, and the United States (the latter to a lesser agree). The Tamba Trio featured pianist Luizinho Eça, ... see all copies from $9.92! new only from $9.92!
19 view cover	Live at the Bohemian Caverns (2007) more music like this by Carla Thomas Carla Thomas' recordings for Stax Records had more of a pop sheen than most of the other artists on the label's roster, and her sides often featured involved orchestration and a distinct, almost Motown feel. She single-handedly put the label on the map with her "Gee Whiz (Look at His Eyes)" hit in 1961, which broke into the charts when she was ... see all copies from $8.92! new only from $8.92!
20	Arara (1989) more music like this by Sergio Mendes At long last, Sergio Mendes seemed to be getting a bit weary of the constant chore of chasing hits in the North American pop field, and the siren call of his native Brazil beckoned. So while the overall sound of Arara remains mostly stuck in Mendes' '80s dance-pop manner, the material is all Brazilian and the CD is sometimes open to more complex ... see all copies from $31.52! new only from $31.52!
21 view cover	Play Brazil (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Warner Music Latina's colorful and exuberant Play Brazil collection boasts 14 cuts from culled from the catalogs of both legends and newcomers that celebrate the country's national pastime, football (soccer). From O Rappa's electronic-tinged "Eu Quero Ver Gol" to Waldir Azevedo and Seu Conjunto' throwback cantina-style jam "Brasileirinho," Play ... see all copies from $3.01! new only from $3.01!
22 view cover	Patato & Totico (1967) more music like this by Patato & Totico The landmark recording Patato & Totico belongs neither entirely to rhumberos nor to jazzers. The musical style will feel very familiar to those familiar with Cuba's rhumba tradition, which springs from the ritual songs of Yorubans and their descendants who found themselves sold into servitude to Cuba's sugar and tobacco plantations. The ensemble ... see all copies from $9.50! new only from $9.50!
23 view cover	Chill: Brazil (2002) more music like this by Various Artists A quick survey of the track listing of Warner Music Latina's Chill: Brazil collection is sure you make you salivate if you're into Brazilian music, especially any kind with a bossa nova slant. Marcos Valle, Milton Nascimento, Gilberto Gil, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Bebel Gilberto, João Gilberto, Os Cariocas, Elis Regina, Jorge Ben, Banda Black Rio -- ... see all copies from $12.22! new only from $16.52!
24 view cover	The Greatest Songs Ever: Brazil (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Despite the fact that Greatest Songs Ever: Brazil misses many of the biggest names in Brazilian music, those that even a casual fan would know (João Bosco, Caetano Veloso, Tom Zé, Beth Carvalho, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Jorge Ben, though the last two both have songs they've written included), it's still an eclectic blend of some of the country's ... see all copies from $16.51! new only from $16.51!
25 view cover	Simply Latin (2005) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.51! new only from $8.29!
