5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent compilation, April 4, 2002

I'm not familiar with her entire catalog, but I can say that whoever picked these tracks did a great job. There are twelve tracks, nine of which feature Tania's unique scat style. These are real barnburners, and definitely worth the price of the disc alone. If you like up-tempo, Brazilian-influenced jazz, you're gonna love this album.

I was in Rio de Janeiro when I first heard Tania Maria while watching cable TV. Surprisingly, none of the record stores I went to in Rio knew who I was talking about. I guess she is more popular in the US than Brazil because I had no trouble finding a CD by Tania Maria here. Brazil must not know what they are missing! Great jazz.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't have enought Chuleta, December 15, 2009

This review is from: Best of Tania Maria (Audio CD)

I bought this album just to get the song "Chuleta". I can play it a 100 times non-stop. Scat, samba, jazz, harmony, its intoxicating and addictive. Quite 80's but it will raise your blood pressure if you are sensible to brazilian music + scat vocals + latin jazz + dissonant harmony + samba rhythm + electronic keyboards.

Get it. And play it 200 times just like me ! :-)
