Description

Offered for sale is an original U.S. stereo pressing of Equinox by Sergio Mendes & Brasil ’66, with the cover still in the shrink wrap.

About this copy: This copy of Equinox is a 1967 U.S. pressing on the A&M label.

The cover is M- and is still in the original shrink wrap.

The disc, pressed at the highly regarded Monarch pressing plant, is M- and looks unplayed.  Clean disc!

Note: Due to a manufacturing error, the album has side two labels on both sides of the disc.  It plays the correct songs on both sides.

A nice copy of a terrific (and well-recorded) Bossa Nova LP.

Background: Released in 1967, Equinox was the second album by Sergio Mendes & Brasil ’66.

The album reached #24 on the U.S. album charts.

Allmusic.com gave Equinox a 4 1/2 star review:

Equinox continues the scrumptiously winning sound that Sergio Mendes cooked up in the mid-’60s, this time a bit more fleshed out with John Pisano’s guitar, a slightly thicker texture, and even an imitation sitar (this was, after all, 1967). Again, the mix of American pop tunes old and new and Brazilian standards and sleepers is impeccable (although it didn’t yield any substantial hits), and the treatments are smooth, swinging, and very much to the point. … Lani Hall’s star was just rising at this time, and it is her cool, clear voice that haunts the memory most often. Like its predecessor, Equinox is exceedingly brief in duration, yet not a motion is wasted.
