Sergio Mendes owes a lot to the Black Eyed Peas for reviving his career. This is his third album in four years, and it repeats the formula that's been working pretty well for him lately: get old Brazilian music staples and dress them up with new productions and collaborations with "the new kids." No improvement on the classics here, but the remix CD of Bom Tempo has some great versions by the likes of Paul Oakenfold, Zap Mama, Nicola Conte and Moto Blanco.
