The first thing you don't have worry about is - there are no bad cuts on the CD. Joyce performs all the Jobim tunes we've come to love at the highest level.

From beginning to end, this CD flows like the best glass of wine you've ever had. There are 14 cuts, I would like to highlight several: "Wave", "Tarde Em Itapoan", "A Felicidade", "Desafinado", "Corcovado", "Insensatez" & "Garota De Ipanema". Joyce's singing & guitar playing are first rate. Whether she's singing in Portugese or English it's simply wonderful - you'll notice this on "S'Wonderful" especially! Joyce also has the great ability (like her Brazilian counterparts) to harmonize along with music - singers like Corinne Drewery (Swing Out Sister) and Kevyn Lettau should take note.

I guarantee if you love Brazilian music as much as I do, you'll agree this is one of the best investments you've ever made! Finding the CD is hard at a local record store, but you can get it with one "click". I'm sure you'll find yourself buying the rest of Joyce's collection - as I have.

Joyce is simply one of the best singers of all times, and this album is a perfect proof. Her style is fantastic, her voice is passionate and strong, her rendition to Jobim & Moraes is as great as anybody else's. You will not be dissapointed with the cuts in this album, and you'll probably be thankful for as long as you live. Do yourself a big favor, buy this album at once.
