Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential recording:
Multitalented Brazilian musician Jobim's talent was revealed to a larger world in 1959 by his and Luis Bonfa's score for the film Orfeu Negro (Black Orpheus) in 1959. Songs such as "A Felicidade" and "Desafinado" generated the bossa nova movement of the early '60s that inspired the likes of Stan Getz, Charlie Byrd, and Miles Davis. This 1967 album features Jobim sharing vocals with Sinatra on "The Girl from Ipanema" and "How Insensitive." Three standards--"Change Partners" by Irving Berlin; "I Concentrate on You" by Cole Porter; and Robert Wright, George Forrest, and Alexander Borodin's "Baubles, Bangles, and Beads"--round out the program of seven Jobim tunes. This is a lovely taste of Latin melody and rhythm from two masters of relaxed swing. --Stanley Booth

The people on bundatrade(don't like the name as it has double meaning in portuguese) took about 6 weeks to send me the cd.
Once it got here it was ...gues what? The wrong Frank Sinatra's album and No Tom Jobim....
Anyways after a complaint (which i will have to give them that) they sent the write cd and I sent back their cd. I think in the end they did ok and fair.
The album is great anyone that ever heard the girl from ipanema with them both singing know what I am talking ... Read More

I remember "discovering" this in my parents' record collection in 1967 when I was 9. I loved it so much... I knew every word because I listened over and over on their stereo system that filled the house. The first time you hear "Quiet Nights" and "Once, I Loved"... it's so soulful and peaceful, and sad. And there is not another recording of "Ipanema" that comes close to this one. I've never heard anything else of Antonio Carlos Jobim but this, and it's enough for a lifetime. I also read every word ... Read More

I have been a Sinatra fan forever and thought he was done mastering new challenges ... until this. There isn't one song on this album that he hasn't treated with more meaning and feeling than any other artist I've heard. The champion of timing showed himself to be the master of subtle nuances in every piece. The surprise? Never imagined the up-tune Baubles, Bangles and Beads could be turned into an extraordinarily tender love song.

I have to tell you, I love Sinatra, I love Jobim, I love Bossa Nova, this album is horrible. I am literally shocked at the response that people are giving this. This product was produced at a time when Bossa was the rage, and every crooner and jazz musician was making Bossa albums. This album introduces nothing new, and the vocals and arrangements are mediocre at best. Really, do not get this album, it is awful.

Excellent album. I purchased this album when it first came out years ago. When I saw it available in CD format I had to buy it. I'm not sorry. Soft, relaxing music that soothes the soul.
