On rare occasion I travel to Sao Paulo for business. Fortunately the hotels we are allowed to stay at are quite luxurious, and this is exactly the type of music they pipe into the lounge and the restaurant. In fact, some of the music comes right off this album. I suspect it's what a tourist, or what the hotels think a tourist, might want to hear while there. I mean you can't expect them to play Modulo 1000 or Lula Cortes e Ze Remalho... or Sepultura.
Bossa Nova pop such as this has to be some of the easiest music on the ears. The beautiful female vocals, the soothing rhythms, the soft textured acoustic guitar, the lovely piano, and the flute. It's - forgive me - So Nice.
Ownership: LP: 1965 Capitol. Another great estate sale find (2019). Originals on rainbow Capitol are out there, but not dirt cheap. And this is a sweet copy. Keeper!
