one of his best.......2001-05-25

The recordings are from 1970 and Gilberto is in his prime. The subtlety and simple beauty of his style shine in these songs. The music is not over-produced; there aren't a lot of other sounds, other instruments to obscure the voice and guitar. For that reason this disc is highly recommended. Incidentally, 2 other releases are comprised of these same recordings:"Ela E Carioco" and "Besame Mucho".

Guys, I was there........2001-01-04

I am a lucky guy. São Paulo is one of the cities in Brazil where things happen. João recently announced that is the best place to perform. And I was there, in Tom Brasil (a music hall), absorbing ecstatic his chant, his guitar and his genius.

João had lived in Mexico for a while. The CD, recorded in 1970 (Brazil won its third soccer title in that year!), belongs to that phase. It will be very interesting and amazing for people who already know something about the greatest Brazilian musician. If you do not have any idea of how good João is, start buying Stan Getz/João, Eu sei que vou te amar, João, Voz e Violão, Montreux. There is the remarkable danger of being "lost", although I would never classificate this captivating album as a minor work.

Let me say something about the tracks. "Besame Mucho", one of the most famous boleros, receives a tender and sweet version. João told us in a recent concert that the composer, Consuelo Velasquez, was a little girl when she wrote it.

And so was Lúcio Alves, the auctor of "De conversa em conversa". A very touching story of a couple that is breaking off a marriage (even if you know Portuguese, don't think the lyric is melodramatic or simplistic) written in the 40's. Lúcio was 13. Haroldo Barbosa helped him copying out the verses.

"Ela é Carioca" was specially composed by Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes for a very bright Brazilian vocal quartet - Os Cariocas. One of the best songs (my personal opinion) of the famous pair who created "Garota de Ipanema", "Brigas nunca mais" and "Chega de Saudade".

If you are looking for a collection of Bossa Nova music sung by João, forget this album. There is much music in Spanish (remember that he was in Mexico and its culture is very rich) but I would be a very bad reviewer if not mention "Astronauta". Pingarilho and Marcos Vasconcellos, auctors of the song, showed it to Caetano Veloso, who politely refused it. Some years later, he had the opportunity to listen to it in the voice of his (and our) master João. One of the many lessons he gave and still gives to Brazilian music. And to the music of the whole world.

Horrible.......2007-01-30

Hay un monton de discos de salsa mejor que este. Chirino no es el mismo que cuando grabo SOY por primera vez.

No lo recomiendo!!

Must have it if you love salsa parties.......2003-01-09

Definetely one of the best cuts you can get to make a great dancing party. But be aware, things can get too hot ;).
Nevertheless, I think there is one missing song: Via, from the Oxigen album. Opinions may differ, but that would round the selection (or even La Ultima Cancion)
