1	A Day in New York (2003) more music like this by Morelenbaum²/Ryuichi Sakamoto A Day in New York, recorded at the end of a U.S. tour the group made in 2002 in support of the Casa release is, simply, Morelenbaum Squared's live set performed -- live -- in a New York studio. The emphasis, of course, is on songs by Antonio Carlos Jobim, although Caetano Veloso, João Gilberto, and even Ryuichi Sakamoto and Paula Morelenbaum get a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.45!
2	Brazilian Classics (2003) more music like this by Eliane Elias Featuring tracks culled from eight of her albums, beginning fittingly enough with 1989's Eliane Elias Plays Jobim, Blue Note has compiled a strong collection of pianist Eliane Elias' Brazilian jazz cuts on Brazilian Classics. Elias' classically influenced touch is evident here on such standards as Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Chega de Saudade" and "One ... see all copies from $9.15! new only from $9.15!
3	Ella Abraca Jobim (1980) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald see all copies from $8.98! new only from $9.00!
4	Sings Jobim (1998) more music like this by Eliane Elias Eliane Elias has considerable chops as an acoustic pianist, although as a singer, she is definitely limited and doesn't have a great range by any means. No one's going to mistake Elias' singing for that of Flora Purim, Astrud Gilberto, Gal Costa or Tânia Maria. But while her voice is paper-thin, Elias sings with enough feeling and sincerity to ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $9.50!
5	Jobim: Someone to Light up My Life (1995) more music like this by Gene Bertoncini The veteran guitarist's collection of bossa novas by the late Antonio Carlos Jobim demonstrate his gift for counterpoint and improvisation in this all-acoustic masterpiece. Accompanied only by the Latin percussion of John Arruci and Jon Bates, Bertoncini plays an astonishingly uptempo "Corcavado" that seems to have overdubbed guitar lines but ... see all copies from $14.98! new only from $14.98!
6	Casa [US Bonus Track] (2001) more music like this by Morelenbaum² & Ryuichi Sakamoto Multiple-threat cellist/arranger Jacques Morelenbaum and his singer/wife, Paula, were a big part of Antonio Carlos Jobim's life in his last decade, touring and recording with him and shaping the music of his last recordings. So it's entirely fitting that the Morelenbaums, along with pianist Ryuichi Sakamoto, should journey to Jobim's idyllic music ... see all copies from $9.73! new only from $9.73!
7	O Universo Musical de Baden Powell (2003) more music like this by Baden Powell In the early '60s when many Brazilian musicians brought bossa nova to the United States, classically trained guitarist Baden Powell took his guitar to France. Hence, the rest is history, as this Brazilian artist infused his hybrid jazz/classical/bossa nova articulations into the European scene. This program chronicles the work he did for the ... see all copies from $20.43! new only from $20.43!
8	The Story of Bossa Nova (2000) more music like this by Various Artists The Story of Bossa Nova features 20 remastered original recordings from the late '50s/early '60s combined with a few modern interpretations of the genre, including 14 tracks written by composer Antonio Carlos Jobim. Taken from the vast EMI-Odeon archive of classic Brazilian music, this introductory set includes Marcos Valle's "Samba De Verao," ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
9	Composer (1965) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim This is a very useful anthology for Antonio Carlos Jobim collectors, who can now acquire on one CD the entire contents of the Warner Bros albums The Wonderful World of Antonio Carlos Jobim and A Certain Mr. Jobim, plus four unreleased tracks from the latter session and the two Jobim-penned songs from Love, Strings and Jobim. These sessions present ... see all copies from $7.77! new only from $7.77!
10	The Unknown (2006) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim see all copies from $15.40! new only from $15.40!
11 view cover	Canta Tom Jobim: Ao Vivo (1999) more music like this by Gal Costa see all copies from $20.00!
12 view cover	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 ... see all copies from $5.05! new only from $5.05!
13 view cover	Minor Miracle (2004) more music like this by Holly Hofmann Quartet Holly Hofmann is one of the top flautists in jazz, though she was classically trained. Joined by pianist Mike Wofford (who is also her husband), bassist Peter Washington and drummer Victor Lewis, she kicks off with a mini-tribute to the late Ray Brown. Brown's samba arrangement of Cole Porter's "Everything I Love" and his own funky "CRS-Craft" ... see all copies from $13.74! new only from $13.74!
14 view cover	The Jobim Songbook (2006) more music like this by Mauche Adnet The lack of liner notes doesn't give much clue as to how long Maucha Adnet has been active professionally as a vocalist, though a quote from Antonio Carlos Jobim indicates that she toured with the late, legendary composer. Her deep, soulful voice is very appealing, similar to that of Leny Andrade. Accompanied by a mix of Brazilian and American ... see all copies from $17.86! new only from $17.86!
15 view cover	The Wonderful World of Antonio Carlos Jobim (1965) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim Unlike his debut, Jobim's second LP for the American market was strictly a pop album, with the composer himself singing, while the arranging/conducting chores were placed in the capable hands of Nelson Riddle. What promises to be an excellent collaboration, however, doesn't quite turn out, and the results are much more bland than could be expected ... see all copies from $11.28! new only from $11.28!
16 view cover	Personalidade (1991) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim see all copies from $8.77! new only from $9.50!
17 view cover	E Convidados (1985) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim When the listening world begins to reflect on the beauty of bossa nova, they dare not forget the achievements of Portugal's Antonio Carlos Jobim, short for Antonio Carlos Brasileiro de Almedia Jobim. This unique musician and composer brought a new revolution of sound and soul to the Latin American public, and is well known for introducing the ... see all copies from $3.24! new only from $9.07!
18 view cover	Garota de Ipanema (1989) more music like this by Nara Leão see all copies from $38.65! new only from $38.65!
19 view cover	Baden Live a Bruxelles (2005) more music like this by Baden Powell Baden Live a Bruxelles is late gig, recorded in October of 1999, less than a year before his death the following September. Some of Baden Powell's later studio recordings lacked focus, or felt tossed off, or were controlled by whoever produced them. Not so here. On Live a Bruxelles, Powell's playing contains all of the majesty, elegance, and ... see all copies from $9.36! new only from $9.36!
20 view cover	Blue Note Plays Jobim [2005] (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Containing 11 previously issued cuts from the back catalog of Blue Note, this mix of new and old artists takes a stab at the songbook of one of Brazil's most important artists. While some artists here may not be the best representatives for re-interpretation of Jobim, they all easily imprint their own unique styles and improvisations around his ... see all copies from $8.95! new only from $10.55!
21 view cover	Bossa Nova (1995) more music like this by Ana Caram After saluting Antonio Carlos Jobim's lesser-known songs on The Other Side of Jobim, Ana Caram turned to his more famous work with equally splendid results on Bossa Nova. Jobim had recently died when she recorded the CD in January 1995, and the singer/guitarist felt that another tribute was in order. While Other Side purposely avoided standards, ... see all copies from $16.10! new only from $16.10!
22 view cover	Flame/Spectrum (1999) more music like this by Azymuth Not every album that Azymuth recorded is great; 1981's Telecommunication and 1990's Curumim, for example, are among its more uneven and inconsistent efforts. But when Azymuth soared, it really soared. More often than not, the 1980s were a productive time for the Brazilian combo. Two of the fine albums that Azymuth recorded during that decade ... see all copies from $10.69! new only from $10.69!
23 view cover	Chill: Brazil, Vol. 2 (2003) more music like this by Various Artists A collection of "38 sexy soul bossa tracks," Chill: Brazil, Vol. 2 benefits from being compiled by Brazilian singer/songwriter Joyce. It's a bit more up and down than you'd expect from an album with "chill" on the cover, but things never get too chaotic. Joyce focuses on the more organic with a few modern-day electronic artists snuck in (ZUCO 103, ... see all copies from $8.31! new only from $8.31!
24 view cover	Silver Nuggets & Fool's Gold (1999) more music like this by David Burgess Hardcore world music fans will find this collection intriguing. World class classical guitarist Burgess was trained by Segovia and won first place once upon a time in the Andres Segovia Fellowship Competition in New York. And he plays in that style throughout this recording, which functions as a tribute of sorts to classic compositions from ... see all copies from $2.79! new only from $9.13!
25 view cover	Todos Os Tons (1992) more music like this by Raphael Rabello Important solo album by the late Brazilian virtuoso, dedicated to Tom Jobim's compositions, Todos Os Tons opens with a very uncommon rendition of the broadly familiar Jobim tune "Samba Do Avião" ("Plane Samba"). Abandoning the bossa nova beat, Rabelo embraces the flamenco tradition, very dear to him, and, joined by his guest Paco de Lucia, echoes ... see all copies from $9.57! new only from $9.57!
