Customer Reviews Herbie Mann & Joao Gilberto With Antonio Carlos Jobim Recorded In Rio De Janero, It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This, Folks! It was in the stores for a short time and I let it slip through my fingers, and then, along came Amazon to the rescue. I used to lay in bed and sweat, thinking, another day had gone by and I still hadn't found or purchased a CD of Herbie Mann & Joao Gilberto With Antonio Carlos Jobim. The CD was delivered to my doorstep, I can hold it in my hand, I can catch up on my sleep! Darn, Vinyl. I was worried I was never going to hear the tracks without scratches or pops in the background. Amazon put an end to that! I once heard, a number of songs written by Gilberto and Jobim around the time of this recording, became so popular in Brazil, they were sung at half time during soccer games like they were National Anthems. Please tell me this is so. Thanks to Amazon, I have retired my old LP, no more sctratches and pops! The only thing is, the songs go around and around in my head like a broken record. Trouble in Paradise. I hope, someday, you too, will hold a copy of these legendary recordings in your hand, and share them with your family and friends. I am certain, a number of children have been concieved to them. Spritual Anthems? Oh, yes. Amen. Subtle Pleasures S. This is part of the "first U. wave" of Bossa Nova music. It relies heavily on Antonio Carlos Jobim who wrote some of the most beautiful music and sits in on several cuts. No, this is not another reprise of The Girl From Ipanema, but you will probably recognize one or two of the songs, and like those lyrics the music "swings so cool and sways so gentle. " Mann and Gilberto travel in separate circles, but they both understand what Bossa Nova is about and whether you are on the floor close-dancin' or kicking back with a cool one, this music should please. . A treasure It's a bit pricy and for not a lot of music, but what you get it worth it. Herbie Mann's flute, Gilberto's voice, and Jobim's piano work make this a wonderful addition to any Brazilian jazz fan's discography. I think Herbie Mann's songs really stand out. You can just feel the ocean breeze while you hear the songs. A well done CD. .
