Astrud Gilberto's 1960s recordings for Verve are seemingly irrepressible. Whether re-dressed as Ultralounge, or re-mixed into trance-dance by anonymous DJs for the 'Verve Re-mixed' series, Astrud is always there. And even away from the clubs and the overpriced cappuccino bars, she still sounds good! 'The Genius of Astrud Gilberto' is a comprehensive overview of her Verve output, and essentially it's a 2-CD extension of the 'Finest Hour' compilation released barely two years ago. A glance at the track listing will reveal few if any surprises to Astrud buffs: there's the obligatory 'Girl from Ipanema', 'Corcovado' and 'Insensatez', and one can't help thinking that a golden opportunity has been missed. It's absurd that her late '60s albums for ... Read More:

Astrud Gilberto made a name for herself when she fortuitously sang on the 1964 US Top 5 smash "The Girl From Ipanema". This association with jazz and bossa nova godfathers brought her a lot of flak from critics quick to dismiss her "artless singing style" and "limited vocal range". However, to the music listeners who succumbed to her vocal charms - and I sure am one of them - the most important aspect of Astrud Gilberto's singing was her ability to get the most out of everything song she performed. As a bonus, her music greatly benefitted from sumptuous Brazilian cum U. S. orchestrations. Her honey-voiced delivery is forever able to transport me to warm summer days lazily spent relaxing on the beach of distant and warm faraway ... Read More:

By the greatest of hazards, I came across Mr W. Nayland's review of the CD titled "Astrud Gilberto's Finest Hour." In my opinion, this album is, arguably, the definite overview of the Verve recordings from Ms Astrud Gilbero, contrary to what Mr W. Nayland might say. And, no, Mr W. Nayland, this album is NOT titled "The Best Of Astrud Gilberto" either. This CD is a twenty song strong collection of Ms Astrud Gilberto's classic blend of pop, samba and jazz recordings for the Verve label. It includes really the cream of her Verve recordings, spanning the period 1963-1969 (plus one track recorded with James Last in 1986). The insert provides details of the recording dates and a list of the musicians for each track. The liner notes are quite ... Read More:

As a relatively new devotee of Astrud I found this CD the best yet. Its all here, from the "Girl From Ipanema" a version I particularly liked. Several "standards" that Astrud adds her own very personal treatment. Then there is Parade I song I would not have associated with Ms Gilberto. The variety of this CD is very broad. It has been in my possesion for less than 24hrs. A good job it is not a vinyl it would be worn out by now.Go buy especially at at these prices.You will not be disappointed.
