O’s Notes: Sergio Mendes is the legendary Latin keyboardist who ushered contemporary Brazilian music to American audiences in the 1960s-80s is back with fresh sound and collaborations with many young artists. Cody Wise, John Legend, Seu Jorge, Milton Nascimento, Scott Mayo and will.i.am. The net effect is yesterday’s good feelings with today’s vibe a la Mendes! Those familiar with his work will welcome him back. For others, this is a good introduction.
