4.0 out of 5 stars Big & glossy but very enjoyable, December 29, 2005
By JMK (Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Brasil '88 (Audio CD)
The liner notes on this Brasilian import CD state that the budget for this album was approximately $200,000, which is a staggeringly huge amount, especially for 1977-78. But this is definitely Sergio's lushest production from his Elektra years, so maybe it's correct.

Sergio maintains a fine balance between lush pop ("Bridges," which charted in the Philippines, and "Midnight Lovers," which includes some gorgeous multi-tracked harmonies), Brasilian jazz ("Misturada," one of his finest instrumental outings, and "Tiro Cruzado", a very funky piece previously done by Jobim and Miucha), as well as some proto-disco material ("One More Lie" and "That's Enough For Me.").

This album basically fell flat in the American market--by the time Sergio released his next, and last, Elektra album (the lamentable "Magic Lady"), he had been "demoted" from the Butterfly label to the budget standard red Elektra label. But this penultimate release from his first Elektra stint is a gorgeous and worthwhile album for all Mendes fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Found at last, January 28, 2007
This review is from: Brasil '88 (Audio CD)
I was looking for this album to be recorded on CD for years!
I purchased this album almost 30 years ago on vinyl and after the CD format came out I couldnt find this particular album for years. Then a few months ago doing a search on your website I finally found out that this particular CD HAD been recorded back in 02.
The technical quality is excellent and it brings back fond memories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Music!, June 10, 2005
This review is from: Brasil '88 (Audio CD)
Late 70's came back to me like a flash. I used to hear this on the airwave when I was young. stuff like Waters of March, Bridges, Midnight Lover & That's enough for me are a tremendous vocal rhythm that made Sergio Mendez a fixture in Latin-Jazz and Soulful Samba. He's on top of his game.
