Reviews4 1/2 stars (out of 5) - "...the 20-bit digital remastering...gives the breezy Brazilian lilt added warmth...", Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century, "...essential for all serious jazz collections...served as proof that it is possible for music to be both artistically and commercially successful...this relatively sparse setting with the great Getz perfectly fit the music, resulting in a true gem..."
A must have record with sublime cool playing by Getz against a lovely laid back Brazilian accompaniment. Imagine yourself on Acapulco beach whilst savouring! A classic.
I wish that WOB would package more robustly though as too many of the jewel cases sent are broken or cracked on receipt.
