Synopsis

Album Description

Does anybody remember where and when Bossa Nova came to life? Was it Joao Gilberto, sitting in a street café with heavy-hearted thoughts going through his head, when a girl with never-ending legs passed him and inspired him to write the world hit "The Girl From Ipanema"? Jazzamor discovered the Bossa Nova in the mid 90's - not in Rio, but in Frankfurt, Germany. Back then, both members were still part of a formation called >4 To The Bar

CD Reviews

Just Perfect

Kem Apak | San Francisco | 10/06/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Lovely, soft voices, great tunes. A superb boss nova electronica album. Definitely one of the best albums of 2003. Listen the sample songs, I am sure you will fall in love with this album."

A near-perfect album

Robert R. Barba | Washington DC | 05/11/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A near-perfect blend of electronica, jazz, bossa and lounge. Musically, it's a seamless album and singer's voice is haunting, but in a sunny positive way; perhaps memorable is a more accurate word. The instrumentation is beautifully arranged and executed, and very indicative of high talent. The only problem that keeps this album from being a true five-star CD (I would have given it a 4 1/2, if possible) is that most (if not all) of the songs on the disc are covers. It would have been interesting to see what they would have done with more original material, but this is a minor nitpick.If you're into this kind of music, this is definitely an album to get, and a band to watch for in the future."

Positive surprise for springwaiting...

Verners | Cesis, Kekava, Latvia | 03/19/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Album is bjuutifull! Really! 100% positive feelings. It's like briliant voice of Portishead, but singing about warm summer night, not about cold evening in the old and dark house. :) In the world of "too much" lounge music, this CD is one to want one."
