110% ! And out of all the songs I have loved this is the one song that pops into my head THE MOST OFTEN from out of nowhere when I am just walking along. Mas que nada indeed !
First date I ever took a young lady I met was to see Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 in 1970. Well, it worked and we got married in 1972 and are still married. Thanks, Sergio...
lol...about the same year on a first date with a then- recent acquaintance I took her to see Nancy Wilson and Lou Rawls at the Hollywood Bowl. Soon after another guy took her to see Sergio Mendes...he ended up with her. Thanks a lot, Sergio!
Yes! The composer is Jorge Ben-- ----He and Sergio used to play together in the 60s out there by Copacabana at Beco das Garrafas- --- Tremendous sixties!
Back in the 60s music scene, Brazilians were the coolest people on the planet- Astrud Gilberto in "The Girl From Ipanema", then Sergio Mendes. The sound was way ahead of its time and still sounds fresh today.
Hey! Brazilian music is one of the things I'm most proud of in my country. Unfortunately, the 1960s and 1970s were particularly sad here in Brazil. There was a lot of repression by the ultra-right dictatorial regime supported and financed by the United States. Great artists like Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Gal Costa and Elis Regina were severely persecuted and had to flee the country as they could be arrested, tortured or killed. It is with happiness that we live in times of democracy here in Brazil, at the same time that we feel a certain anguish with the radicalization of our society. But I hope the storm ends someday. Greetings from Curitiba, in the south of Brazil.
We did the same. Dad his brother and father were musicians. Dad played this album over & over. It's a wonder the needle didn't score all the way through the record. LoL
it is timeless indeed...so great....musicianship, voices, the song itself.....no planned obsolescence like today's music....katy Perry or Ariana Grande will be nothin' but a forgotten joke in 30 years whilst this oldie will be listened worldwide at any time......that's the difference
I believe that my Mom has every album they ever released. As a kid she would play their music while she cleaned our house. This brings back such sweet memories from childhood. Excellent music, and such talent. I was indoctrinated to the finest music from the day I was born. I cannot thank my family for the joy they brought me through their love of music 🎵 ❤🎵
As a kid, your mother would clean your house ? Just how old was she ? How the hell old were you, for that matter ?!? (Try this: "When I was a kid, she would play their music while she cleaned the house...")
Hi friends, If you give permission, I suggest you Elis Regina songs, like this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uwZYby2ckzo.htmlsi=AcxwcaPYa7rtrZ8g Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
@@renegaderunner332 your math skills are incredible.. I did state my age.. but my dad had so much music on "Reel to Reel" that there always something to dance to, and even though old, his recordings were new to me :)
I'm just saying 🤷 how bad music 🎶 is now.i listen too blus jazz classical. Ps.a lot of classical music 🎶 i don't like. One of my top composers is heyden
The absolutely best Summer of my life. 1967 I was 20 years old and the world was my oyster. Would live forever. Not so. An old man now, reliving my glory days in memories.
1967 was one of my best years! Celebrated my 19th birthday in Vietnam. Fireworks were some of the best I had ever seen. Dinner was Beans and Mother Fers and pound cake.
I was 14 and this music was so glamorous. I have many of their albums and love them still. Yes, my dear, it was a truly fab time. The cars, the fashions the FUTURE! Shame the future didn't work out but, as you say, we have our memories to keep us going. Cheers.
Eartha Kitt, along with this iconic band, Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 are the perfect definition of classic elegance. Everyone looks great and the guy with the shakers and tambourine is awesome! My family is Afro-Caribbean and I was brought up with this type of music, International music. I thank my parents for introducing me to this fabulous music.
Yes, so thankful that in my family we listened to many styles of sophisticated music. My ears were spoiled practically from birth and I couldn't stomach much of the music of my teen years (the 80s) preferring much more the songs my elders liked.
I grew up a boomer in Miami. We always had the greatest music in our house. That wonderful music will never get old. When I am in a shit mood, a little bossa nova always lifts my spirits.
Yup. My parents were Haitian and I grew up in the '80s listening to '57- '77 Afro-Carib-Latin-Euro Funk/Jazz/Ballads. This is the soundtrack of my childhood.
I was 14 when this song was a hit on WABC radio in NY. I loved it so much that later in my life I printed the lyrics in Portuguese and learned how to sing this phoenetically!
I was a few years older than you.....also lived in NYC...my first intro to Brazilian music...never could carry a tune..music was better way back when !!
They also used to play this song constantly on “Rambling with Gambling” on WWOR in NYC when I was a child. Instilled in me a love of the bossa nova which remains with me now at 61 years old. ❤
I clearly remember seeing this on TV live in 1967 I was 13 years old. And remember how sexy, sophisticated and exciting the music and the performers were. This is what set me on the path to a bigger broader appreciation for music and eventually Smooth Jazz.
@@queenbeekeeper That's because today's pop "music" is 100% performance based: it's just to display the self-absorbed emotion of the so-called "artiste" at that moment and serves no lasting purpose. On the other hand, music before 1975 was about the song. Put another way, back then, one had to have solid material and genuine musical skill to get a recording contract. Today, song quality is secondary and musicianship is not really important given all the computer-assist technology -- precisely why it's bland, trite and frankly embarrassing. For example, in the world of black pop, it's hard to imagine that we've descended from Aretha's amazing music in 1968 to the hell-hole depths of rap and hip/hop garbage of the last 35 years.
The "Pringles canister" is a percussion instrument called GANZÁ. The musician name is (ou was) José Soares. I' am not certain but he had a nigth club in Rio many years ago.
+Enig Ma, Pringles canister? It's called ah....hey wait you know what? That's gives me an idea....save me some money and just rattle the crumbs around. Hmmm....
This was a track on the first Ep vinyl disk I ever bought. My lifelong love of Brazilian music was only consolidated by living in Brazil for a few months mainly In Salvador da Bahia where I met some famous musicians such as Luis Melodia and Milton Nascimento. When I came back to Australia I presented a weekly community radio programme on Brazilian music, founded the annual South American Festival of Music and Dance at the Bondi Pavilion and became Social Director of Sydney's own Escola do Samba. I was also fortunate to meet Egberto Gismonti and Nana Vasconcelos when they were performing in Sydney. There is something about Brazilian music that just nourishes my soul and always makes me smile.
Wow! Que incrível! Muito obrigado por divulgar a boa música brasileira aí na Austrália. Fico emocionado e feliz que a nossa cultura tenha te tocado de forma tão profunda. Adoro o Milton Nascimento e fui vê-lo em sua última apresentação ao público no emblemático show da turnê A Última Sessão de Música, em novembro de 2022 no estádio do Mineirão em Belo Horizonte. Foi uma linda experiência. Um abraço daqui da chuvosa cidade de Curitiba, no sul do Brasil.
Great job! Thank you for publicizing Brazilian songs in Australia! Greetings from Rio de Janeiro... Do you know Elis Regina songs? If you give permission, try this samba-jazz sung by her beautiful voice: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uwZYby2ckzo.htmlsi=AcxwcaPYa7rtrZ8g
En esta canción está encerrado todo un país .....PELE , LAS MUJERES HERMOSAS ,SU RITMOS , SU COLOR , SUS PLAYAS , SU RIQUESA , SU MUSICA .....TODO EL EXPLENDOR DE UN GRAN PAIS .....DESDE MÉXICO CON TODO MI CORAZÓN UN ABRAZO A TODOS UDS ....... BENDICIÓN
LOL....I had a smaller version of those earrings that had different replacement colored orbs...hadn't thought about those in years....great memories and such a GREAT song!!!
Um…hate to burst your bubble. But they were definitely not really singing and really playing in this clip. They basically just played the actual track from the album and pretended because it was for TV. Back then the expectation was that you were just sing along with your actual track. Many bands would smarten up to that and then demand to be able to play live, but most TV executives wouldn’t allow it.
I'm so glad I was 31 in 1966 with a tape player on my sailboat, and tapes of Sergio Mendes and Brazil 66 that I could play as we sailed on Galveston Bay. Sergio and Antonio Carlos Jobim's music are memories that I'll always remember and associate with that great time of my life when I courted my future wife out on the bay, teaching a North Carolina girl from Asheville how to ride the wind while listening to some great new music from Brazil. Thanks Sergio and Antonio
I was a kid when I saw Brazil 66 on TV. I love this song! I don’t understand the words but it’s pleasing to the ear. Mom would’ve been able to understand it at the time.
@Donald...I thought so until an Ugandan busiman introduced me to Evora, a singer from Cabo Verde. One of her back-up people plays a piano in a way I've never heard before.
Benny Hill so true now we have "rappers" .what a bunch of stupid people , shit " music" shit people , and the Music" I think they call it that although I am not sure it is music .Sound like noise to me .
This is so cool. I’ve always loved their sound. Lani Hall, “The Voice”, married Herb Alpert sometime after Brazil 66 signed with his A&M records. They’re still together.
Wow!!! This is the first of I have heard anything from this group and they were AWESOME!!! Just a piano, bass fiddle and a set drums and the sound is fantastic. Wow and from 1966!!!
It was a great time for new & refreshing music. I listened so much my father cut the plug off my record player. I was 16 then. I still have their music thru Apple.
i was raised on this! my mom played this on cassette all the time and she eventually forgot the name of this song. it's been over a DECADE since i last heard it, so happy to finally know what it is!!
Especially amazing since there were no microphones in sight for either the singers or instruments except for the one in front of Sergio which was used after the song was over so we so we could hear him speak. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ahs7Lb7aYco.html I'm not knocking them. This is the way TV was and for the most part, still is done; pre-recorded audio with lip syncing.
One of their best songs, which has passed the test of time. The rhythm and the lyrics are very good, and the girls' voices coupled to the excellently played piano and the other instruments, make it one of my favorites through the years.
+MerleOberon Oh Merle, So thankful you are still here. Your greatness can never be repeated with today's unskilled instant microwave wanna be actors. You have my highest praise and appreciation. Thank god for TCM movies. I long for the 60's and 70's and so sad for those long lost days. I can even smell the air and feel the warmth of the sunshine. Love you Ms. Oberon
This brings back so many pleasant memories Driving through Queens N Y. in our white chevrolet convertable with my mom and dad and my siblings down the Clearview expressway, our hair waving in the wind. I'm now 72
Mortal Clown Eartha Kitt was a very unique woman in the same way Grace Jones was and not because of their skin colour. They were just unique and no one was ever able to copy them. Icons.

I've always loved this song since way back then so I went to look up just what Mas que nada meant & found this very interesting article. It explains the origins of the song & composer, and has the lyrics, w/ English translation, fascinating!- www.thebestofbrazil.info/specialfeatures3.html

@@diogocatalano9557 I agree,many of the Latin genres have been spoiled .take Merengue from Dominican rep,the ultramerengue is unlistenable now.Cuban,great till the 90s,.
This works because every single person on that stage was not only an excellent musician, they were also listening to each other. You don't usually get this level of competence outside of a recording studio. They were the best of the best. Oh, and Eartha Kitt...what talent.
Gente, cadê os brs? A gringaiada toda apreciando esse hino e eu aqui, boiando. Sou só eu que nessa quarentena resolveu vasculhar o youtube procurando o que há de melhor, em termos de música, do nosso país? Manifestem-se para eu me sentir menos sozinha, por favor!
Essa conta de telefone tá no nome do meu filho..mais você não está só..tbm estou curtindo essa preciosidade. Nesse tempo de pandemia só um som desses pra animar rsrs
@@PauloCesar-cy5ls queria que a mesma coisa acontecesse aqui, no nosso país. Como o @juliano Xavier já explanou, hoje quase ninguém escuta música de verdade.
I had a copy of their first tape in 1971 while stationed in Viet Nam. I wore that tape out during that year. That album was my favorite then, and now at 76, it still is.
Me encanta..... Desde España..... Eran buenísimos..... A mi la música Brasileña es una de mis pasiones... Amo la bossa Nova me encanta..... Me gustan muchos artistas brasileños de bossa como Joao Gilberto, astrud Gilberto..... Tom jobim... Elis Regina y otros más que he escuchado AMO LA BOSSA DESDE ESPAÑA SALUDOSY LA MÚSICA BRASILEÑA
@@Cormaxx My apologies. As I look back in my collection and listen, it seems this was a bootleg concert recording. However, there is a nice video of her 'performing' Day Tripper with them on a 1966 TV show. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WxZkLU8UNCE.html
