CD ReviewsElevator music The Delite Rancher | Phoenix, Arizona | 08/24/2006 (2 out of 5 stars) "Being an enthusiast of both the Beatles and Bossa Nova, it was natural for "Beatles in Bossa Nova" to peak my curiosity. The previous glowing reviews convinced me to invest in this tribute. Those reviewers have lost all creditability because this CD is simply awful. First, this isn't really Bossa Nova. This is elevator style smooth jazz with a Bossa feel. While the notes claim that this blooper was made in Brazil, it sounds painfully gringo. Second, the production is cornball. Most instruments are synthesized. Though released in 1990, there are enough synthesizers and cheesy keyboards to sound like 1982. Third, the musicians gave uninspiring and lifeless performances. The vocals sound like something off the Lawrence Welk show circa 1964. By a group called Brazilian Tropical Orchestra, I expected and even hoped for a little cheesiness -but this more than what any mortal listener can tolerate. If you want to verify my review, call your bank's customer service department and listen to the background music while you're on hold. The failure of this tribute is especially apparent when compared to the success of like-minded projects such as "Bossa N' Stones" and "Bossa N' Marley." With so many good Beatles tributes, it's a shame to waste your money and ears on "Beatles in Bossa Nova."" A great mix! Mauro Zanuz | USA | 02/19/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "This cd is really interesting. The bossa nova tones give to the beatles songs a unique elegancy and pleasant softness. Some outstanding tracks are "The fool on the Hill", "And I love her", and "The long and winding road". Buy this cd, it is really a must for everyone who likes listening beatles songs from a different perspective." Terrible Philippe Jolicoeur | Costa Rica | 07/25/2007 (1 out of 5 stars) "Love Brazil ,love the Beatles ,hate this record ! Cheesy ,embarrassing elevator music .Waste of money.Enough said.
Stay with the same series that produced Bossa N stones ." |
