  G21 POWERSSOUND - The Wonderful Lani Hall
Thirty-three years ago, Lani Hall began a spectacular run as lead singer with the immensely popular Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66.
Hall, who's married to trumpet magician Herb Alpert of Tijuana Jazz fame, possesses one of those rare voices.
Hall does a simply great job on the familiar "Mas Que Nada," in a more reserved rhythm than previous versions.

 Brazil - Brazzil - Ivan Lins, Marlui Miranda, Rough Guide to the Music of Brazil, Joao Gilberto - July 1998 - Press ...
Lani Hall first discovered her deep love for the exotic, indigenous rhythms and lilting melodies of Brazilian Music in the late 60s and early 70s when she was lead singer with Sergio Mendes and Brazil ’66.
Hall paints the well known "Mas Que Nada" into an exotic blend whose landscape is intensified by her primitive/sacred interpretation, jungle percussion, moody orchestral underscoring and the relentless heartbeat of the track’s primitive drum.
Lani was 19 years old, singing in an Old Town club on Wells Street in her native Chicago when Sergio Mendes heard her and asked her to join his newly formed Brazil ’66 ensemble.

 Lani Hall
Lani Hall first came to be known to the public at large when she joined the second Brasil project of Bossa Nova master Sergio Mendes, Brasil '66.
Much of the song's appeal was due to the distinctive, multi-tracked vocals of Hall (who, being at the time a non-Portuguese speaker, had to learn the lyrics phonetically).
Apart from occasional appearances on Alpert's records, Hall retired from recording after 1985, concentrating instead on raising her daughter.

While Mendes was the lively pianist, arranger, producer and musical director, it was Chicago-bred vocalist Lani Hall who gave the group the finesse that ensured their success on the pop music charts.
Lani is equally at home singing in English, Spanish and Portugese, although you'd never know it from the way she tackles all of her songs with the ease of a native.
The original Brasil '66 lineup consisted of Mendes on piano and keyboards, Lani Hall and Janis Hansen on vocals, Jose Soares on Latin percussion, Bob Matthews on bass and Joao Palma on drums.

 Brazil - Brazzil Magazine - Lani Hall, Brasil Nativo
Visit the Windham Hill website at http://www.windham.com Lani Hall, Brasil Nativo Lani Hall first discovered her deep love for the exotic, indigenous rhythms and lilting melodies of Brazilian Music in the late 60s and early 70s when she was lead singer with Sergio Mendes and Brazil ’66.
Co-produced by Hall and husband/musician Herb Alpert, and co-arranged by Hall and pianist/arranger Eddie del Barrio, Brasil Nativo is an intimate statement of the way she hears and feels Brazilian music.
Hall recorded her first solo Brazilian album A Brasileira in 1981 before a very fruitful period exploring Latin music and recording in Spanish with Latin superstars Jose Jose, Jose Feliciano, Camilo Sesto and Roberto Carlos.

 Amazon.com: Brasil Nativo: Music: Lani Hall   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
This album from bilingual (at least) singer Lani Hall is a pleasant, if sometimes underwhelming, listen; this is mostly due to the strength of Hall's voice, which has a power and expressiveness that's sometimes too much for the songs she's singing.
Lani Hall has got to be one of the most under-rated vocalists of our generation.
I hope Lani will continue to record as her voice still holds the same magic as it did when I saw her and Brasil 66 perform live in South Bend Indiana in the sixties.

 AMP, Alternate Music Press, The Multimedia Journal of New Music
Lani Hall has been passionate about Brazillian jazz since the late sixties when she was lead singer with Sergio Mendes and Brazil 66, and after years of subsequent success as a solo artist culmintating in a Grammy for Best Latin Performance in 1986, she took a break from music.
Now that Lani is refocused on her musical career, she's exploring these passions on her Windham Hill Jazz debut, Brasil Nativo', which features new and exciting arrangements of classic and lesser known Brazilian compositions, some in English, and some in the more romantic native Portuguese.
Brasil Nativo is the latest in a string of recordings that have helped Lani Hall to expand her talents beyond the usual description of a Brazilian singer.

 Lani Hall : Brasil Nativo - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Lani Hall first discovered her deep love for the exotic, indigenous rhythms and lilting melodies of Brazilian music in the late '60s and early '70s, when she was lead singer with Sergio Mendes & Brazil 66.
This standout recording marks her re-emergence as an artist as well as a re-exploration of her earliest passions; Brasil Nativo features fresh and unique arrangements of Brazilian songs, both classic and more obscure, some sung in English, others in their native Portuguese.
Hall sings phonetically in Portuguese, but two of the selections, the opening track "Tres Curumins (Three Young Indians)" and the title song, are sung in a native Amazon Indian language.

 LANI  MERCADO  CHOSEN  MOTHER  OF  THE  EYAR
Lani has seven children by Bong (actors Bryan and Jolo, Inah, Gianna, Loudette and Ram; one was stillborn.)
She doesn’t fight back (not even with Rosanna Roces, mother of Grace with whom Jolo has a months-old love child) with harsh words but with humility, not ashamed to say sorry even if she doesn’t have to, even when she’s the aggrieved party.
Bong and their children secretly prepared a big party for Lani at their Alabang house, with Bong himself "serenading" Lani with love songs, including The Way You Look Tonight, which is one of Lani’s favorite songs.
