 Rating: - Better Than a Bottle of WineYES!YES!YES! to every other review! it is perfect, beautiful art. When it first came out (the LP), it came with a sticker on the cover..."The Best Bossa Nova Album Ever"...it still is. When invited to dinner, instead of the bottle of wine as a gift, I brought this. Much Better Than a Bottle of Wine. Rating: - The bossa BibleThe best Gilberto album (one of the best Brazilian albums of all time), stripped down to his voice, his guitar, and light hi-hat/percussion. It's sublime, it's enduring and timeless, it's a desert-island disc, it has opened the ears of musicians and fans alike for many years. Stop reading and buy it. Rating: - mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....................!luscious. exquisite. to me this music is sexual. erotic. sensual to the extreme, tenderness, sweetness, the body in its joy, as in pure happiness, lovemaking. This album has brought me to tears more than once, tears of pleasure, yearning and joy. so I am gushing. I don't care. Listen with your heart and with your skin. Rating: - WonderfulPerfect summer music. The opposite of annoying jazz. Beautiful guitar chords, nice rhythm, minimalist accompaniment, low-key voice. I don't speak Portuguese, but I love it. It's zen jazz. Rating: - PerfectAfter I had read the previous reviews and I had listened into the songs, I decided to buy this album. It is fantastic: Gilberto concentrates on the essential, the music is not overcrowded. It is stunning, sublime. What else could I say? Listen and go for it. Browse for similar items by category:
