by
Antonio Carlos Jobim & Elis Regina
This beautiful -- and now legendary -- recording date between iconic Brazilian vocalist Elis Regina and composer, conductor, and arranger Tom Jobim is widely regarded as one of the greatest Brazilian pop recordings. It is nearly ubiquitous among Brazilians as a household item. Regina's voice is among the most loved in the history of Brazilian ...

by
Various Artists
Now this is an interesting project; Brazilian standards and newly-composed music interpreted or transfigured by the old masters, rock stars and cutting-edge '90s musicians - with all the proceeds going to fight the spread of AIDS. What is so remarkable about this album is how wholeheartedly the younger musicians relate to the cruising Brazilian ...

The Latin Side of Vince Guaraldi

more music like this
by
Vince Guaraldi
The Latin side for Vince Guaraldi means a brush with both the Brazilian and Caribbean strains of Latin jazz, garnished now and then by an outboard string quartet and graced by four of his own delightful tunes. On Brazilian numbers like "Corcovado" and Brazilian-treated tunes like "Mr. Lucky" and Guaraldi's lovely "Star Song," Vince has drummer ...

The Composer of Desafinado, Plays

more music like this
by
Antonio Carlos Jobim
In his first American album, Antonio Carlos Jobim presents a dozen of his songs, each one destined to become a standard -- an astounding batting average. Jobim, who claimed to have been out of practice at the time of the session, merely plays single notes on the piano with one hand, punctuated by chords now and then, sticking to his long, ...

Solo: Live

by
Oscar Peterson
Two previously unreleased 1972 solo concerts are compiled on this Oscar Peterson CD. The first, recorded in Lebanon, sounds as if it may have been recorded for broadcast. While the condition of the instrument provided for him is not quite up to par, Peterson, like his mentor Art Tatum, quickly sizes up the capabilities and limitations of this ...

more music like this
by
Henry Johnson
While many of Henry Johnson's 80s and 90s recordings were more pop-jazz oriented, An Evening at Sea, which was recorded live aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2 in various parts of the Atlantic Ocean in November 1999, is a welcome return to his improvisational side. Joined by pianist Kenny Drew, Jr., bassist Larry Gray, and drummer Paul Humphrey, Johnson ...

Quiet Nights
(1962)
more music like this
by
Miles Davis
Miles Davis' final official collaboration with arranger Gil Evans resulted in their weakest project. There were only 27 minutes of music on the original Quiet Nights LP, and six minutes were taken up by a quintet performance of "Summer Night." The six remaining tracks are enjoyable enough (highlighted by "Once Upon a Summertime" and "Corcovado"), ...

Brazilian Byrd
(1964)
more music like this
by
Charlie Byrd
The arrangements by Tommy Newsom for strings, brass, and woodwinds may be a bit sweet and the 13 performances (which on the CD reissue include a previously unreleased take of "Engano") may be overly concise (often under three minutes), but the resulting music is strangely pleasing. Acoustic guitarist Charlie Byrd always had a strong affinity for ...

Trio da Paz
The well-traveled musicians who make up Trio da Paz (guitarist Romero Lubambo, bassist Nilson Matta, and drummer Duduka Da Fonseca) have eclectic tastes that range well beyond their native Brazil -- and they choose to exercise them without restraint on this album. Starting out with Miles Davis' "Seven Step to Heaven," the trio swings back and ...

This Is Smooth Jazz: Love Bossa Style
(2000)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
This New York-based funky jazz label has a slew of great artists you've probably never heard of, so it seems like a good idea that they keep putting out samplers to help better acquaint them with groove-desiring smooth-jazz fans. The 1999 disco effort Smooth Jazz Plays the Disco Hits was an absolute hoot but probably didn't gain the label loads of ...

Ana Caram is an excellent singer and guitarist of Brazilian music, but this set lacks any real surprises. She only plays guitar on one song, sticking to singing while being backed by a rhythm section and the saxophones of Paulo Levi. The selections all date from the 1960s (other than her original "Pura Luz") and Caram is mostly cast in the role of ...

This best-of collection features live and studio recordings from her middle and late albums. It contains five tracks from the live Saudade do Brasil, four tracks from Live at Montreux, and five studio tracks, notably a resuscitated (finally) version of "Beguine Dodoi," whose mastering was horrifically botched on the U.S. release of Essa Mulher.

To be an excellent singer of standards, whether jazz or Brazilian or otherwise, an artist must possess a strong yet subtle voice and work with a sympathetic band. To really endear him or herself to fans, though, he or she must also know their repertoire; not only which songs to sing, but how to sing them: which parts to embrace and which to re ...
