Today the Brazilian bossa nova and jazz legend Sérgio Mendes has passed at 83… Mendes played with Antônio Carlos Jobim (regarded as a mentor) and many U.S. jazz musicians who toured Brazil. In this video Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 are performing “Mas Que Nada”
@SVG__Collection I listen to this song everyday. I will be thinking about his family today. May he rest in peace. 🙏
@SVG__Collection WOW! Making me think of my fam. Parents love his music and passed it down. Thank you!
@SVG__Collection He added another fabulous layer to the awesome sounds that spring from pop/rock/jazz circa 1965-67. Highly recommend getting a best-of Sergio Mendes album from the late ‘60s. eg Look Around, Night and Day, plus some great covers.
@SVG__Collection Great legend of my favorite music on a Sunday afternoon, after church. There’s only one Sérgio Mendes, in the field of Bossa Nova music, indeed. He is already missed, through The Sounds of Brazil.
@SVG__Collection I grew up listening to my dad play their records for me . One of his favs and now mine . RIP
@SVG__Collection Great album to play during parties chill enough to keep conversation going, but still musically adventurous
@SVG__Collection I didn't know..this legend gave me a totally different understanding of music..RIP..
@SVG__Collection Sérgio Mendes, the mellow revolutionary.
@SVG__Collection I grew up with this! We'd play Sergio Mendes all the time with my dad back in the esrly 70s! I loved it. What a loss. Brings back so many wonderful memories. Incredible talent. This is a personal favourite!
@SVG__Collection Lani Hall married Herb. What a voice she has.
@SVG__Collection Sérgio Mendes and Brasil 66’s music was more than a sound, it was a lifestyle. A culture of cool, romance and drinks served best on the rocks. Rest in Peace.
@SVG__Collection The cool, melodic revolutionary himself. 🙏🏽
@SVG__Collection He was an absolute legend. He will be missed. His songs featuring the incredible vocalists Lani Hall and Bibi Vogel are music for the soul❤️. There is a great documentary about him called “In the key of Joy” that I highly recommend. 🙏🏽❤️👑🕊️.
@SVG__Collection He was a talented man. #RIP
@SVG__Collection Very sad news, his music was great.

@SVG__Collection RIP sir. I loved your music as a young girl growing up with it.
@SVG__Collection Very find memories of listening to this as a child at home, and later rediscovering it as an adult. IIRC he was half if A&M Records as well.
@SVG__Collection A lot of people all around the world may not be aware of how much Sergio Mendes' music they've heard. Genio. Descanse en paz.
@SVG__Collection Another devastating loss for the music world. What a talent. What a sound.
@SVG__Collection my mom and dad being portuguese listened to a lot of brazil 66. therefore so did i
@SVG__Collection “In the key of Joy” The 2020 Sergio Mendes documentary now streaming on Peacock. I highly recommend watching it. 🙏🏽♥️👑🕊️. Here’s a trailer promo. youtu.be/xV6A0zl0VPo?si…
