4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely good for the price, November 16, 1999

I agree that some parts of this album are cheesy, but the instrumental tracks, along with "Meditation" and "One Note Samba," are good enough to warrant buying the album. Plus with the low price you aren't taking much of a risk...

3.0 out of 5 stars OK, October 11, 1999

A nice CD that pays tribute to the master himself. However it doesn't do an adequate job as a few of the remakes are drawn out and dull. But the jazzy One Note Samba, cast of neat musicians and terrific price lift this CD up over the half way mark.
