Paying $3.99 for a jazz masterpiece that you don't own is a gift. Grab it!

From: Amazon Posted: Jul 18, 2008 Type: User Review Just Take a Listen...

Stan Getz, Joao Gilberto, Jobim, and others worked together and created a landmark in jazz and bossa nova, but that's not the reason you should listen to it. You should listen to this record because it's a great, beautiful slice of bossa nova. I...

From: Amazon Posted: May 29, 2008 Type: User Review Wonderful Music!

Wonderful and relaxing music. Very soft, wonderful sound tracks. There are two soundtracks of "The Girl From Ipanema," with the first being the ultimate recording. I would highly recommend this CD for anyone who enjoys cool jazz or any relaxing...

From: Amazon Posted: Apr 28, 2008 Type: User Review A Serendipitous Masterpiece

In history, seemingly all great things are happenstance. One could certainly say the same about this serendipitous recording. A quiet, gentle, beautiful record of 8 songs (and 2 reprises) it created a time capsule of that era that surprisingly...

From: Amazon Posted: Jan 19, 2008 Type: User Review Must have jazz title, but dated

You can't be a serious jazz fan and not own this album. That's for sure. I bought it expecting more, but it took me back to listening to my parents' records on the dining room floor in front of the console stereo. The sound and style are very...

From: Amazon Posted: Jan 05, 2008 Type: User Review light the candles, music to eat by

Simply the best Latin music on the planet. No dinner party should be without this one. Romance relaxation and rejuvenation, you can feel your blood pressure coming down while you're listening.
Saxophone at its sexiest.

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 09, 2007 Type: User Review Gerz/Gilberto

I listened to this music back when it was first played and it was great. I purchased this CD as a gift for someone who is a fan of "Girl From Ipanema." However, I liked it so much I kept the CD.

It was first nostalgic but after...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 20, 2007 Type: User Review Cool all around relaxing CD

I read a review for this CD in one of my women's magazines as a good jazz blues cd that would be something you could throw in your cd player and play through during a dinner party or martini party. My husband and I love it. I was a bit skeptical...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 19, 2007 Type: User Review The bonus tracks are NOT the original 45 rpm singles

Need not to say this is a classic, the 8 songs from the original album are all worth more than 5 stars, but the bonus tracks "The girl from Ipanema" and "Corcovado" are not the ORIGINAL version of the 45 rpm singles, a regret to all the consumers....

....than this. Some very good albums may define a singer; some great ones, like "Tapestry" and "No Secrets", can define a whole generation. Here, we have an album so great we could use it to define "music".

There are conflicting...
