Brilliant
A masterpiece. One of the most beautiful CD's / LP's I have ever heard in my life.

Brazilian Soul reached my Soul
From the first cut to the last, this music climbs directly to my innards, makes me smile, weep and all emotions in between. I do believe it is Byrds best.

Double your pleasure!
Laurindo Almeida has been a favourite of mine since the 60's (yes, I am just an aging hippie!). My wife bought this album on vinyl years ago - we wore it out. When we saw it as a CD we tripped over each other racing to the cashier! The subtle phrasing, the interplay of these masters, the choice of songs, every facet of this gem sparkles and becomes more lustrous with repeated listening. Sometimes a song or an interpretation sounds SO SIMPLE - until you try to do it! Then you begin to understand what mastery is necessary to make things sound easy. It's so very difficult to do; Charlie Byrd and Laurindo Almeida make the most beautiful music sound simple - wizards!
