João Gilberto Review
by Richard S. Ginell FIVE STARS !!!
This release is Joao Gilberto stripped down nearly
to his bare essentials -- his voice, guitar and the extremely spare
drumming of
-- and he's just as mesmerizing as he's ever been on records. The whole
record is about the rhythmic clashes and dovetailings of a singer and
his guitar, pitched at extremely low levels of volume yet generating
volumes of drive without seeming to breathe hard. Dig the insistent way
in which "Falsa Baiana" and
marathon rhythm machine "Eu Vim Da Bahia" ride the waves of the bossa
nova groove, or how Gilberto delivers one of the best renditions of
"Aguas de Marco" -- quietly relentless and to-the-point. Three of the
tracks eschew words altogether -- gentle syllables and/or insistent guitar tell the entire story -- and the final selection, "Izaura," belatedly adds a female voice () in the left speaker. Though recorded in a New Jersey studio -- the engineer, surprisingly enough, is , the electronic music pioneer of fame -- this addictive release originates from PolyGram Brazil.
