CD Reviews

The few greats apples ina bad barrell

Nicholas I Martinez | Seagoville, Texas United States | 08/20/2001

(3 out of 5 stars)

"This was quite an odd collection of songs, but being a fan of Ms. Gilberto's voice and phrasing if the CD's plays on you just may forget to press the forward button. I don't know where they found that fantastic electronic piano player but I don't think I've ever heard an eletric piano sound that grovy before. I didn't really care all that much for most of the tracks but If you love Ms. Gilberto you need to pick this up."

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

Cynthia Ann Dolen | Houston, TX United States | 10/19/2006

"When I ordered this CD I was expecting the original "The Girl from Ipanema." Imagine my disappointment when a totally different version, minus the incredible sax, began playing. I wanted to toss it then and there. I decided to check out the rest of the CD but it didn't get any better. Fortunately, I found the correct recording on the "Getz/Gilberto" CD, which is absolutely an incredible listening experience. This is the CD you want if you're looking for "The Girl from Ipanema." Don't waste your money (or your ears) on this CD. Just awful."

Disco flapdoodle versions...

"So maybe in the 1970s,when both bossa nova and Astrud Gilberto's time had peaked and passed,it seemed a good idea to re-record these classics in order to sell them to the disco crowd...Maybe Gilberto needed the cash...certainly it was no real stretch to go from bossa nova to disco..BUT THESE SIDES JUST AIN'T THE SAME AS THE ORIGINALS,and without Stan Getz's contributions these sides stink..."
