And just because I don’t want to be the only person
Who has this stuck in his head this morning, here’s Sergio Mendes and Brasil 66 Sorry about the commercial at the beginning, and the poor video quality.
Anyway, Lani Hall and Janis Hansen were always able to make Portugese sound sexy and sultry, and watching them wiggle their hips while wrapping their lips around those words… well, it always makes me feel funny in the pants. Now you can too.
Many thanks for this post. Nice to have the visuals to go with the tune (and nice visuals at that..).
Been years since I have heard Brasil 66 — one of the better parts of working at small-town MOR stations was playing their music.
I was but a grade school lad when that was new, but damn if it did’t captivite me then, as now.
Even better with the visuals.
“Cool” was much cooler then, than what passes for cool, now.
You’ll note that my nancesent “gunroom” arising from the Post Hurricane Ike rebuild of this house, has not the faintest trace of “Bubba” in it. Rather, it is becoming a refined version of a ’60’s modern martini bar, only with a loading bench, library and massive safe and ammo lockers.
It also includes a full bar, wine refrigerator, 200+ count humidor and some damn fantastic lighting for function or atmosphere, as the mood drives.
I’ll have to get some Sergio playing in there, now n’ again.
