Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars more bossa nova.......2003-10-27

How much more bossa can you hear..? there are large number of artists who have done these Brazilian Jobim standards over and oevr...but here is the catch...what makes these Brazilian standards stand out is the Brazilian guitar tone...which is the main instrument...in this album Charlie Byrd the only American who made it as a Brazilian guitar master ..plays all these tunes with an instrument that was written for... to begin with..

so...seat back and listen to every tune ...so fresh..and so together..even the slow ones...no dinner music here...it's just kind of music..that you'd play anywhere, anytime for anybody..regardless of what kind of musical style they are from...I guarantee it...!!
