5.0 out of 5 stars
Another reference Bossa Nova album from a Bossa Nova master, February 24, 2006
This review is from: Nos: Odeon 100 Anos (Audio CD)
Johnny Alf is one of the former Brazilian composers to fuse Jazz into Brazilian music. His strong Jazz accent made him be honored one of Bossa Nova founders.
He composes and writes his own inspired lyrics. He also plays the piano in all his albums. Specially in this album he is backed by a full orchestra with the best musicians in the place, Rio de Janeiro, 1973.
This is another of his best albums with a collection of such great standards which include slow ballad 'Nos', one of his smash hits in Brazil.
All sung in Portuguese.
A mandatory album for a respectable Bossa Nova Collection.
