3.0 out of 5 stars A great artist but not a great cd, recomended only for fans, August 31, 2006

I'm a big Joćo Gilberto fan and I have all cds he recorded. The problem with this cd is the quality of the recording. It isn't very good and on some songs the orquestra on the background makes it almost impossible to listen to Gilberto's voice and his guitar. There are some enjoyable songs when there is no orquestra, only Gilberto and his guitar. Only for this part it worth to buy this cd. If you are starting you should get this only after you get the others.

As a fan of Joao Gilberto, I listened to this album with high expectations. Honestly, I was a little let down, but mostly due to my own over-hyping of the experience.

Don't misunderstand though, there are some gems on this album. Do not overlook the rendition of Chega De Saudade which features a very young Bebel Gilberto. This track alone, being so sweet and simple, makes the purchase worth your money... because, after all, the album is not a bad contribution from the legendary Gilberto.
