Also contemplating if I should I turn this into a stamp. Your thoughts?
I got acquainted to Sergio Mendes in 2004 through a friend Ed. That week when Timeless dropped he'd been raving about the album. After giving it a hear I came to the conclusion that Timeless is a perfect album to start with if you're not familiar with Sergio's music.
Its a mix of English vocals by contemporary singers and jazz vocalists of '04 singing to the original arrangements of Sergio's best hits. Sometimes I think that most of the album has been drowned in a lot of Will.I.Am and Black Eyed Peas but the original arrangements still comes across.
As much as I want to avoid bringing up the topic. I settled with playing the Timeless album and watching snippets of the concert at the dome. Looks like it went great as expected. Thanks internet and instagram hoomans. You're wonderful!
Sergio Mendes is 75 years old this year. I don't know how possible it is for him to travel back to Manila and perform again (fingers crossed.) Given the circumstances I may have to go see the man perform in Brazil (fingers and toes crossed.)
