(4 out of 5 stars)
"Since middle 50's, when she joined the Bossa Nova movement invited by João Gilberto, Alaide Costa proved to be one the best brazilian singers of all times, a great interpreter of Jobim and Vinicius. Also admired by Milton Nascimento and Johnny Af and Herminio Bello de Carvalho she deserves to be more known by the critc and general public inside and outside Brazil.In this cd recorded in Paris she sings bossa nova songs but also sambas by Paulinho da Viola and Elton Medeiros. with her lovely smooth voice.And leave her listeners claiming for more."
