Oh so soothing,
This review is from: Compact Jazz (Audio CD)
The master of the bossa nova's best work on Verve. And it's dirt cheap!This is a great introduction to the bossa nova-based jazz of the 60's. I'd start here and see if you like it, then branch out into the actual albums by some of the other related artists (some of whom can be found on this cd). The music is really smooth, calm, soothing, very tropical, world feel to it. The Portugeuse language sounds so beautiful. A nice vibe to mellow out to. Good stuff!

Simpy the best of Jobim,
By David Slabodnik (North Dakota) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Compact Jazz (Audio CD)
This disc is a must have for anyone who enjoys the Bossa Nova style. Though cliche, the recording of 'The Girl from Impanema' on this disc is, to say the least, breathtaking! The vocals are extremely pure anc crystal clear, and with Stan Getz at the Sax, it makes for an awesome Recording! There is a lot of other good stuff on here too. An instrumental version of on note samba is very good, though perhaps not quite as stimulating as it is with vocals. If nothing else, this cd is a good one to impress girls with your good taste in music! heehee...

Vintage Jobim, Classic Bossa Nova,

This review is from: Compact Jazz (Audio CD)
A while ago I purchased the Verve Jazz Masters, Vol. 13, Antonio Carlos Jobim CD. It's a good CD, but the Compact Jazz: Antonio Carlos Jobim CD is GREAT! This is Jobim at his finest. If you only buy one Bossa Nova recording, this should be it.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent,

A fantastic, definitive collection of Jobim's works. I wish the description showed the full ensemble list - especially Ellis Regina (the female voice for Aguas de Marco and others).

Antonio Carlos Jobim's work is so fun and upbeat and relaxing all at once. It's the sort of music you want to sit and drink coffee to on a warm summer day. Fantastic.
In one song, you can tell that he and the woman he's singing with are trying not to laugh. What wonderful music that allows even the performers to have a good time. Definitely a good buy for someone with an appreciation for good music.
