5 out of 5 stars A Delightful Trip To Brazil.......2007-07-08

In the late 60's and mid 70's, I recall as a young child of listening to Brazilian music on the radio. It truly made an impact on me as an adult as I did not realize until recently that I was listening to the great composer, Antonio Carlos Jobim. I also did not realize the magnitude of his influence on other artists such as Brazil 66. One must imagine my delight when I discovered I could purchase "The Composer of Desafinda, Play" cd as I feel the compositions take me to Brazil. It is an absolutely beautiful and melodic cd that "takes me away" from every stress.

5 out of 5 stars DESAFINADO - ANTONIO CARLOS JOBIN.......2007-04-04

Tremendous record. Could listen to this music for hours. The music is soothing, melodious, relaxing, a compilation of Jobim's best songs. I had the original LP of this record and unfortunately lost it, when I moved to a new home. I feel very fortunate in that Amazon had the CD recording available.Great music.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic, unbelievably wonderful CD.......2006-07-27

Perfect for cooling down in the hot summer! Get a nice, cool drink with crushed ice, find a nice air conditioner to be near, put on this CD and RELAX!! If you need more than this to calm down, you will have to visit your physician to get a prescription! I've loved this since it was an album in the sixties (and I was a teenager)and now I truly enjoy it in my fifties! It is timeless music that never grows old nor becomes dated. Perfect for gift giving as I cannot imagine anyone who would not enjoy this music. You will have to play it many times as once is not enough!!

5 out of 5 stars Composer of Desafinado.......2006-03-14

One of the best albums of all time. It fits in the "Desert Island" category. Jobim plays with artless simplicity, backed by subtle strings and percussion that's superlative. I've listened to and loved this album for over 40 years and never tired of it.

5 out of 5 stars Classic Jobim.......2005-10-06

Beautiful music by one of the greatest composers of song of the 20th century or any other. Still a great CD to study for those interested in the Brazilian bossa nova style. Despite sometimes sounding a bit too sweetened by the hand of Claus Ogerman's string writing for our contemporary ears, this is a classic that should be in the collection of all fans of this genre.

5 out of 5 stars Delicate Songbird flying in an Antonio Carlos Jobim ensemble.......2006-02-24


Miucha is the one-word name and nickname of a delicate Brazilian songbird in a low key style but pretty fine tuning. Her good taste for repertoire choice is her another quality.

If it is important to you: she is sister to Chico Buarque and was wife to Joao Gilberto.

This was a smash hit album in Brazil and it includes fresh new material like 'Vai Levando', a delicious Bossa Nova with its chorus "a gente vai levando'.

Jobim's presence is a registered mark with his special and well crafted ensemble. He plays the piano and sings along with Miucha.

All sung in Portuguese.

5 out of 5 stars So achingly cool.......2001-05-18

Since first hearing these haunting tunes 26 years ago, each revisit has been a treat. You can't listen to Desafinado or Corcovado and not want to curl up on a couch with someone you love and a glass of good wine. The melodies range from sprightly to melancholy, so you'll always find one to fit your mood. The Getz/Gilbero/Jobim album is no less an all-star than this one, but don't miss this dose of undiluted Jobim magic.

        5 out of 5 stars Your collection of CDs should include this.......2007-01-09

        This CDs is one of the most important albums of Carlos Jobim, no wonder it is published in several versions (limited, luxury, gold and who knows what else...). It is also a milestone in the history of Bossa Nova, this album had a tremendous success in the US and launched the bossa nova craze. Responsible for the orchestration was Claus Ogerman (one of his recent deeds is the album Look of love of Diana Krall). This music is joyous and melancholic at the same time, it is impossible to get bored when listening to it, not even if you do so for the 100th time. The sound quality and the package is also fantastic.
