OK CD

Customer Rating:
I think the music is OK. The artists are great, but the selection of song could have been better. I was disapointed in the CD.

Fantastic

My family and I are actually from Brasil. I found this CD at a Best Buy on sale for $5, and out of curiosity, I bought it. I LOVED it. My relatives loved it. The poster who said that the songs on this CD aren't authentic to Brasil obviously is not Brasilian. This CD got passed around my family so much, that I don't even know who has it anymore. I want another copy, which I plan to NOT share. So now I need to buy it again. It really is that good. I first bought it about 10 years ago, and it's still a hit with me and my family. One of the best.

great collection, but I might have got a bad CD

Customer Rating:
This is a really nice selection of bossa nova music, but my CD only had 20 tracks, despite being labeled as having 22. Did this happen to anybody else? Still, it's 20 tracks of really nice music, so I can't get too upset.

Better Bossa Nova collections out there

Customer Rating:
I haven't had much luck with trying to get good Brazilian music lately. This is just ok, not the type of Bossa Nova that you would usually think about with Brazil.

Enjoyable rhythms

Customer Rating:
I usually approach Brazilian music from the jazz point of view, so this compillation was an interesting change for me - much broader in scope, full of interesting musicians and performances (only some of them quite close to jazz).

If you're a jazz fan(atic) this migh border on tedious and repetitive, but otherwise it's obviouslly interesting and challenging...
I'm therefore giving it a star above the level of my listening pleasure.
