Artist:  Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66

Title:  Look Around

Date:  1968

Label:  A & M Records   SP 4137

Art Director:  Tom Wilkes

Notes:  Produced by Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss, Sergio et. al. play through the songs of the Beatles, Bacharach/David, Gilberto Gil and a few originals.  The sound is the Tijuana Brass with a little more of a South American feel to the beat.   The cover has "the sixties" written all over the place.  The colors, the knit dresses, the ties and shades.  It all adds up to a fine time.  Grab a drink and let's relax in the shade with this one.

Line Up:

Sergio Mendes - Piano and keyboard
Lani Hall and Janis Hansen - Vocals 
Jose Soares - Latin Percussion 
Bob Matthews - Bass
