Sergio Mendes - Timeless 
I've been listening to this album all day, I'm really lovin' it! Considering I had never heard of Sergio's name being mentioned once in my entire life until this year, it's definitely an eye-opener to hear some of his playing and arrangements go so well with some of today's contemporary recording artists. Even though I had already heard "Mas Que Nada" a few years back, hearing it again recently made me want to go ahead and listen to the album, only remembering a few tidbits I read earlier in the year. When I heard everything else, I was pleasantly surprised. I had no clue what to expect, so I must say I'm glad I decided to take a listen to the album. Having never listened to alot of samba or Brazilian music, my ears are definitely open for some now. I got an album to chill to, now!    Ooh, little darlin' if you're

After the gig their was a sign-session and that friend had great chat with Sergio and the bandmembers . | |
