"With that exclusive and incredible voice of Dori Caymmi, this album is full of deep feelings expressed with no words, just the music from the Dori's heart and soul. I was shocked when I heard this album, was my christmas present from my big brother, and I never been impacted like this with any album. This album contains the end titles song of the HAVANA movie, "Hurricane Country", which is a very nostalgic song with certain sadness. I really recommend this album."

The most sexy version of "Brasil" ever recorded

"This album has the most sensual, moving version of the song "Brasil" ever to have been recorded. You can feel the heartbeat down to your fingertips. Herbie was nominated for a Grammy for his piano solo on this song. If Herbie's solo and Dori's arrangment doesn't get you seriously in the groove, you need to get a pacemaker installed immediately. Dori Caymmi is one of the best composers and arrangers alive today. If you don't know his work, you need to get familiar with it while he is still here to share it. He has worked with Antonio Carlos Jobim, Quincy Jones and numerous other awesome musicians. I have purchased everything that he has ever recorded and would walk to the end of the earth to hear him play live. This guy is phenomenal and not to be missed..."

"I bought this CD in 1993 brand new. Since my copy has been playing for years, I finally decided to replace it. However, Dori's work sounds just as fresh as when I took the plastic of the CD years ago.This CD is for lovers and close friends. Some of the songs are
so warm and soothing that they can be played over again for whatever the ocassion. This is my GOTO CD in a clutch moment. It should be one of yours too. Muinto obregado Dori!! Ciao"
