Solo voice/acoustic guitar release from “the First Lady of Bossa Nova.” It’s delicious, delicate, low key, and quiet. Since it’s just her voice & a guitar throughout, there’s a very intimate feel to all tracks. Like a female Joao Gilberto, she has a rich, jazzy voice and a sophisticated, playful style. It all sounds alike: soft, slow bossa, but with that crystal-clear voice it’s all so good. Especially:

2. Slow & lovely Jobim/ de Moraes composition.
3. Sweet, romantic, downtempo love song. Sigh….
4. Extra soft w/warm vox & gentle guitar.
7. A nice touch of nostalgic love.
8. A touch of huskiness to her voice on this one.
9. Good guitar work & just a bit more bouncy. Nice.
10. Relaxed and relaxing. Nice blend of guitar & vox.
14. A sweet little la-la w/good guitar & vocals.
15. Bight & more midtempo. Sweet & catchy.
