Music reviews of Ye-Me-Le
Music Review: dead center in the middle of the raod always equals bullseye for 66
Rating: 5 Stars
You have to hand it to Herb ALbert. He had increadible taste. Back in the late 60s there was not a bad band on the A&M roster, and boy, did he know how to pick them when it came to Sergio Mandez and Brizil '66.
On this album, all their albums, Brizil could make bad materiall great and great material even better. (Check out their version of "Can't take my eyes off you." They take Letterman tortured sap and turn it into a fantastic jazz piece ripe for FM radio.)
Here, the brilliant bossa bandits tackle higher end fair, such as "Witchita Lineman," and "Norwegian Wood." They remake and remodal this work, adding keybord solos, and brass.
It is usless and beside the point to compare Mendes' covers to the origionals. Mendes stokes the melodic elements of every song he
makes-this guy could cover Cradle Of Filth and it would be melodic- changes keys, and adds wonderful pollyrythms to otherwise maudlen
This music will bring tears to your eyes, but never through callowness or manipulation. The tender parts are so genuine, and the not so tender parts so melodcally strong, the songs work the emotions. But subtlely, tastefully. Just listen to "Some Time Ago" and you'll instinctively agree.
In a sense, if you have listened to one of the 60s A&M albums, you have the basic idea of all of them. Yet, you really should get all the albums. Sergio may play the same card each time out, but you know what? It ALWAYS works. You don't have to even think about how---just let your spine tingle.
I wonder how he would redeem Brittney Spears
