Free Music Review: A real treat; the warmth and intimacy waft over you from the opening bars.
Hit: 4 Stars
The above reviewer, Joe Sixpack, is more knowledegable about the genre than I am. So his is a good endorsement. What I can say is that I do have about 60 bossa nova albums spanning from late 50's to the present, and this is one of my favorite. One reason I bought it was because I'm familiar with the superb guitar of Celso Fonseca from his earlier works, and he sure shines here--without being showy. I prefer the word "traditional" to Joe Sixpack's "conservative." I'm sure Joe is right from a certain perspective but, perhaps as a function of my age (50's), I'm quite at home with a samba/bossa nova sound that's in keeping with the likes of Rosa Passos, Nara Leao, and Joao Gilberto.
This is not an imitative album. It's very sincere, well performed, and it is what it wants to be. The jazz influence is tasteful and non-self indulgent. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because I found the last tune a bit jarring and out of context--but that's just a matter of taste. The other 13 tunes provide me with a bossa nova album that I already cherish.
