Regina could be betterD. I like Carlos Jobin's music a lot so I was expecting this C. to be more exciting. I thought collection of music was rather poor and Regina sings with less fire. She could be better.
Amazing album by two masters
Buy a vinyl copy, sit down on your most comfortable armchair, put on your best headphones and let Elis & Tom take you to heaven. Everything has been said about this jewel.
must-hear album
If you love music there is no excuse for not buying "Elis & Tom" and trust me, you will LOVE it. For those who love music this album, along with "blue" from joni mitchell, "tapestry" from carloe king, "tracy chapman" from tracy chapman, "in the wee small hours of the morning" from frank sinatra, is a must hear album, one of the most brilliant albums of all times, and also a great opportunity to meet Elis Regina, the singer considered by the critics to be one of the ten greatest singers of all times.
Wonderful Brazilian Pop
Elis Regina is a wonderful singer. This record is mainly about the singing of Elis Regina and the songwriting of Antonio Carlos "Tom" Jobim. She has a beautiful voice, a nice sense of style and can handle a variety of material from slow ballads to fast jazzy numbers. Tom Jobim is a songwriting genius and a fine guitar and piano player. The combination of the two makes for a great record. I might have preferred sparser, less pop-oriented arrangements, but the combination of Elis and Tom transcends the background for their performances.
My FAVORITE CD
I end up setting my player to repeat, because I just cannot get enough. I only wish there were more than 13 tracks on this CD.
Of all the music I've ever owned, this is my favorite of all time.
