Liner Notes by Michel Legrand.
Includes the following Jobim songs:
Trio 3D: So Tinha de Ser Com Voce
From the liner notes (shown in their entirety, below):
Deodato's genius once again shines in his very creative arrangement of Jobim's bossa standard So Tinha De Ser Com Voce. This track, from 1965, belongs to the second album Antonio Adolfo's Trio 3D recorded for RCA. Among the special guests are Joao Theodoro Meirelles, leader/saxophonist of the Copa 5 group, and Raul de Souza, Brazil's best trombonist ever.
Milton Banana: Chega de Saudade/Desafinado/Corcovado
From the liner notes (shown in their entirety, below):
Milton Banana (1935-1999), one of the best Brazilian drummers ever, took part in Joao Gilberto's debut album, backed the singer in the famous 1962 Bossa Nova At Carnegie Hall concert, and recorded the multi-Grammy winning Getz/Gilberto, which introduced The Girl From Ipanema to the world. back in Rio, he formed his own trio, releasing a series of albums on Odeon. In the late Seventies he signed with RCA, often recording with orchestral backing. This medley, from a set exclusively devoted to Jobim's songs, includes three all-time bossa favourites: Chega de Saudade, Desafinado and Corcovado.
Miucha & Jobim: Samba do Aviao
From the liner notes (shown in their entirety, below):
A Jobim standard from the early Sixties, Samba do Aviao was producer Aloysio de Oliveira's top choice for the first Jobim & Miucha album, recorded a decade later. Singer Heloisa Buarque de Hollanda - aka Miucha - is the sister of one of Brazil's top composers, Chico Buarque de Hollanda, also a novelist of moderate sucess.
Gal Costa: Garota de Ipanema
From the liner notes (shown in their entirety, below):
No Focus On Bossa Nova would be complete without
The Girl from Ipanema. This is a very recent recording, by Gal Costa,
who performed many times with Jobim in the Eighties. Released in
1999, sung both in English and in Portuguese, it belongs to her
tribute album to the maestro. God bless him!
