5.0 out of 5 stars Bossa Bossa Bossa USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, May 17, 2004

This review is from: Bossa Nova Usa (Audio CD)

Brubeck successfully incorperated three major musical influences into his quartet; jazz, classical, and Bossa Nova. This album is a classic, yet fails to make it big on cd. (in America anyway) The most memorable songs on this album were the opener, Bossa Nova USA, and Trolley Song. All the other songs got good melody hoooks and good musicianship. During this time, drummer Joe Morello had developed some interesting latin rythms and drum beats. It's great how Brubeck incorperated this great style of music into his brilliant jazz, because Stan Getz Bossa Nova, is a little boring for me.

This CD is only available from a Japanese import which is too bad. The music is fantastic. It is sort of take 5 meets Bosa Nova. There are no bad cuts and the drumming fits perfectly. I like this better than Gone with the Wind. Get a copy of this if you can. It is the Quartet at their joyous peak.
