sweets for my sweet  performed by  The Carnival  (1969)
Composed by Pomus/Shuman
Arranged by The Carnival w/Alcivar,Holman, and Howe
From: Brazil
Recommended by klatu [profile] on Wednesday 5th February 2003

Another Brazil '66 knockoff band, maybe not as solid as the Mendes-endorsed Bossa Rio, but they did do a nice version of the Roger Nichols track "love so fine". More importantly, they did this, a cover of one of the Drifter's less memorable hits, done over with a very punchy, immediate arrangement. More aggressive than most of Sergio's stuff. Nice Peanuts, Guaraldi/Schroeder style piano intro! Recorded in L.A. with a few studio guns on board. (added later) Maybe I have velveeta pumping through my heart, but I do enjoy this whole album, even the pretty bad version of turn, turn, turn.

from The Carnival (Capitol), available on CD (Vivid (Japan))

Other Versions: The Drifters
