5 out of 5 stars PURE CLASSIC.......2001-09-18

I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS LITTLE MY MOTHERBOUGHT THE ORIGINAL RECORD ALBUM HOE I GUESS I WAS AROUND 11 OR 12, AND PLAYED THAT RECORD TO DEATH FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS STRAIGHT THEN I LOST IT COULD NOT FIND IT FOUR YEAR LATER THEN ONE DAY LAST WEEK ONE OF THE QUIET STORM STATIONS PLAYED TWO OF THE CUTS FROM THE ALBUM I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT ALL OVER AGAIN AND BROUGHT BACK SO MANY MEMORIES I DIDNT CARE HOW MUCH IT COST I HAD TO HAVE IT.

4 out of 5 stars Not Classic Sergio Mendes, but still GOOD.......2001-06-11

I purchased this CD because I am a BIG fan of Sergio M and Brasil '65, '66 and '77. This is the NEW '77 with pretty much a whole new cast and somewhat of a new sound. The remnants of Bossa Nova are buried in this release...The cut "Real Thing" was a favorite of mine when it received air-play on the radio (back in 1978!)... I still prefer the sound of the original Brasil '77, however the only way to get their music is through collector's or on auction sites...I still recommend this release, but prefer the older '66/'77 sound...if you want to complete your collection, then definitely buy it! The sound quality is excellent!

5 out of 5 stars As good as it gets.......2001-05-22

This is an extraordinary work by Sergio. His melodies and rhythms are unexcelled. This, for my money, is his best collection although I find no fault in any of his other works.

5 out of 5 stars New Brazil '77.......2000-09-19

I loved this album. I bought it years ago. It was fantastic then and it is still fantastic now. "Love City" is very upbeat and makes me want to dance. I love everything Sergio Mendes puts out. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had to undergo a mastectomy and chemotherapy five years ago. While I was undergoing chemo, I would listen to Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66. It always picked up my spirits and made me feel so much better. Family, love of life, and Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66 kept me going during the worst time of my life. I just celebrated the 5th year anniversary of being cancer free. I credit Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66 with helping me to survive. I just wish I could find "Crystal Illusions" on CD. That was my favorite Brazil '66 album to listen to during the worst those hard times. I still listen to it today. I am truly grateful for Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66. Thank You Brazil '66.

5 out of 5 stars This is an underappreciated GEM!.......2000-06-13

Too bad this is not a domestic release anymore. This is a musically rich CD, and Stevie Wonder (who is simply awesome) writes one of the tracks. Sergio Mendes' genius will never fade, and I think this is a fabulous represenation of what kind of work he is able to produce. Fork over the extra bucks. You won't regret it!
