3.0 out of 5 stars
Positive vibes coming from this music..., May 29, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Bossa Nova Brazilian Jazz (Audio CD)
What attracts me to Daisy's music is the fact that, while much serious jazz these days tends to be dark and brooding, Daisy finds a way to instill life and hope in the music. The Brazilian jazz on this album is a perfect fit for Ms. Chiang. Unfortunately, this CD doesn't communicate her playing as well as a live performance, but if you are in Southern California and get a chance to hear her play live, be sure to go -- you will be in for a real treat. This CD is recommended, as an introduction to a style of jazz, and as an introduction to an artist that definitely will go places in the future.

Not Too Hot......, November 16, 2000

This review is from: Bossa Nova Brazilian Jazz (Audio CD)
I'm a long-time Bossa lover. The song line-up looks interesting, but the approach to these classic tunes is lack-luster. The drummer seemed like he could not decide to play Bossa style or samba. The electric bass sounds cheesey. This is not Bonfa, B. Powell, C. Byrd, Almeida......
