Okay, as you all know, I usually restrain my posting to the Alpert/TJB board, and that is what I'm familiar with. That said, I was in what passes for a Walmart wannabe in my small town and they, for some weird reason, had a copy of a Sergio Mendes album on their budget rack for $8. From looking at some pictures on Amazon, I have concluded, despite not remembering what the title was from when I saw it, that it was an album called Encanto that I saw.
Here's my question: coming from my base of being used to Alpert, would that particular Mendes album be significantly different from what I'm used to, and, if not, which Alpert era would it be most similar to (bear in mind hat the only post-TJB albums I've ever heard are Rise, Beyond, Keep Your Eye on Me, and Anything Goes)? I know I've heard a lot, and most of it good, about the guy on here, but I've never heard anything by him before. For that price, I'm willing to give the guy a shot if you guys think I'll like the album despite being primarily an Alpert fan so far.
