5.0 out of 5 stars Blue Bossa Is A Delight, September 28, 2002

By

This review is from: Blue Bossa (Audio CD)

Ana Caram's vocals bear an eeire remsemblance to 60s Brazilian superstar Astrid Gilberto, but I can't hold that against her. Ana's plaintive whispering vocals are well suited to David Chesky's sparse production values. This CD is retrograde in the sense that it revisits the wonderful 60's fusion of samba and cool jazz. Now, at last, I can take my classic Getz/Gilberto CD off the turntable and replace it with the swaying samba of this talented artist. I have a feeling this one's going to stay on my turntable a long, long time. Hats off to Chesky Records for bringing us another treasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ana Caram is a Delight!, June 16, 2003

In my search for various recordings of 'Blue Bossa' I was very fortunate to come across this terrific CD. While Ana Caram will be compared to the great Astrud Gilberto, she has an even mellower approach and somewhat smoother delivery which is so perfectly suited to the sounds of this music. If you enjoy Bossa Nova, you will surely want to add this to your collection! She's a gem!

I bought this after listening to a few tracks at a music shop. I'm not heavily into Brazilian, but love Latin. Though I haven't heard of Ana Caram before, her voice and guitar blended superbly.

Well made bossa nova!
