I don't know if this is in your discography, but a scarcer Sergio Mendes vinyl LP is the 1968 "Fool on the Hill" in mono version, A & M LPX-160. Record companies were phasing out mono's in favor of stereo by 1968, so few mono copies were issued.
I've got mono promos of LPX-160 FOOL ON THE HILL plus LP 166 (TJB XMAS). A&M issued mono promos for a long time, as I also have found Lani's SUNDOWN LADY (MP-4359), which I assume stands for "mono promo." These have stereo version sleeves with a sticker stating 'monoraul' on front.

I'm hoping to help update the brasil66.com site when I get some spare time. Mike B. is going to assist with rewriting some of the capsule reviews, and I'm going to attempt to branch out beyond Sergio's A&M albums as well. I don't own much in the way of Mendes, though, so I'll probably need some good scans from anyone who has the albums on hand. In the meantime, I may see about revamping the last page of the discography (where the albums are listed in a table).
