5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious Brazilian jazz-pop that runs away with you, August 7, 2004

This review is from: Bela Vista (Audio CD)

This is one of my favorite recordings of jazzy Brazilian pop. The ensembles are so tight and the groove is so sexy, you want to eat it for lunch. Tania Maria has a band of tigers like Steve Gadd and Lew Soloff at her command and leads them through an incredible jungle of original tunes and two great covers -- you've never heard "Satisfaction" or "I Can't Give you Anything But Love" sassed up this way. The recording has both irresistible, driving tunes in which Maria's skats carry you all over the map and luscious, indolent ballads. Beautiful production, stellar sidemen, Maria at top strength -- it doesn't get much better than this.
