When I think of Sergio Mendes, I think of Mas Que Nada. Everyone above the age of 45 knows that song, even if they don't know the title or the artist.
I had the amazing opportunity to see JD Souther perform in a tiny venue (Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett, off-season) and play many of the hits he wrote for other people. His version of New Kid In Town still echoes.
As always, Charlie, a great entry. And both your sister and I agree with you 100% on Waffle House. On long road tips, it's our go-to place!
Great column.
