CD Reviews

Big Band Bossa Nova by Quincy Jones

Geoff Brandt | Quintana Island, Texas USA | 02/03/2007

(1 out of 5 stars)

"Very, very disappointing. One star, and only because of the arrangement of Serenata -- otherwise, 1/2. Go with Quarteto em Cy or Joao Donato, any of Tom Jobim's CDs are preferable -- maybe Gal Costa sings Jobim.

Sorry to say, this is a TERRIBLE album -- he was just trying to capitalize on a "thing" at the time..... disappointing. Period.

Most BossaNova is best when done by small groups -- BUT, if you insist on a big/larger bands, get Stan Getz's Big Band Bossa Nova CD. That's a terrific album. This flat-out STINKS (and I like most of Q's other work).

As a qualifier of sorts, I've been to Rio, am a former broadcaster and DO know music."
