They played this song at the student union at UCLA pretty much 10 times a day, if not more. Brazil 66. I think it was in 1964 that I remember this from.
I don't believe Sergio Mendes' "Brazil 66" ever recorded The Girl From Ipanema.
Mendes did record it in '64 (album released in '66) asGarota de Ipanema, with an all star band:
Sérgio Mendes - piano
Art Farmer - flugelhorn
Phil Woods - alto saxophone
Hubert Laws - flute
Antônio Carlos Jobim
Tiao Neto - bass
Chico de Souza - drums
