5 out of 5 stars First-rate introduction to Brazil's myriad of musical offerings.......2005-07-20

What a shocker - no one has reviewed this CD! I don't even know Portuguese and this is one of my favorite world music albums. A Brit whose name I can't recall followed up his Nu Brazil compilation with this sequel. I can say with complete sincerity that this album has spawned a huge interest in Brazilian music for me, largely because it doesn't limit itself to just one style but tries to show listeners the incredible range and quality of music that the country's artists produce. If you don't like a certain track, skip it: the next one is almost guaranteed to please. My favorites are track 3 on disc 1, track 9 on disc 1, 6, 8, and 9 on disc 2, and the fantastic closer by Tuze de Abreu, a haunting tune that recalls Portuguese fado at its best. A must buy. I usually don't go in for compilations, but this is a notable exception - all in all, a fantastic album.

      5 out of 5 stars DETROIT DISC - Beatles songs get a Brazilian beat. Detroit Free Press Sunday April 6, 2003. By staff writer Terry Lawson .......2005-12-14

      The Beatles weren't entirely resistant to Latin rhythms - the popular ballad "And I Love Her" and a cover of the show tune "Till There Was You" were semi-sambas, and the gawdawful arrangement of the R&B plea "Mister Moonlight" was cha-cha by way of Chuck Berry. But while Beatles songs has been jazzed up, countrified, even classically modified, Brazil and Beyond is one of the only groups to have adapted some of the world's best-known songs to Tropicala.

      Led by bassist Rich K, B&B, which include guitarist Frank Marinello, drummer Rob Emanuel and percussionist Dennis Sheridan, has been mixing Beatles (and Miles Davis and Wayne Shorter) tunes into it's sets of Brazilian standards during Friday and Saturday gigs at Dearborn's Big Fish. This album shows how cleverly they have been adapted and also proves the band's mastery of Brazilian styles.

      "Eleanor Rigby" actually sounds fresh in its samba arrangement, while Rich K uses a Brazilian cavaquinho to plant the beat to opener "Day Tripper" and the ballad "This Boy," performed as a choro. The disc's most enduring treat may be an afoxe approach to "Come Together" in which Sheridan addresses the melody on the berimbau, a tonal percussion instrument normally used to add exotic flavor. The overall flavor here is as lush as a rain forest.

      5 out of 5 stars the best CD you've never heard.......2006-01-15

      I asked for this CD for Christmas, but didn't know what to expect. It's fantastic, and prompted me to write my first ever review. The only drawback is that the title track "The Girl from Ipanema" is an instrumental (I suppose paying for the royalities/rights to include the popular version would make the cost prohibitive); for the best version of that song, buy the Getz/Gilberto CD that accompanies this. But be sure to buy THIS CD if you like pleasant music! Who cares if you don't know what they are saying, or don't know Bossa Nova is--I didn't and I love it!
