Herb's fave five albums

This is kind of strange.... from the article, one of the entries says:

SERGIO MENDES & BRASIL ’66: Herb Alpert Presents… (Decca) Stan Getz brought Brazilian music to my attention so when I auditioned Sergio Mendes for A&M, I was familiar with it. Brazilian rhythms were very seductive and danceable. His sound was a hybrid of American music and African jazz.

They got the label wrong, and it almost sounds like he's talking about a Stan Getz record instead of the Sergio Mendes one. Nice list though, although from the headline I thought it was going to be Herb's list of HIS OWN best six albums. That would have been a more interesting read, for a variety of reasons.
 
There is no telling what Universal has done with some of the titles. And consider, too, the article is from the UK, so some of these may be on the Decca label in the UK and/or EU, one of Universal's properties.
