Really lovely takes on the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim – served up here by singer Camila Benson, with lots of great help from Ryo Kawasaki on guitars, keyboards, and production! The set's got a lean approach – Benson herself on acoustic guitar, mostly just with support from Kawasaki – plus some guest trumpet from Victor Jones, and guest alto and soprano from Craig Rivers – who each play a bit on the album. The set includes versions of "Samba Do Aviao", "Aguas De Marco", "Retrato Em Branco E Preto", "Falando E Amor", and "Estrada Do Sol" – plus a nice take on "Estate" – not a Jobim tune at all, but one we love! CD

Spacious readings of the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim – served up here in a modern fusion mode with Camilia Benson on vocals and guitar, and the great Ryo Kawasaki providing a lot of extra guitar work and rhythms! There's a contemporary fusion approach to the set – acoustic guitar mixed with programmed grooves – yet the whole thing still has a very intimate approach, maybe like some of the updated bossa material that Roberto Menescal was doing at the same time. Benson sings in Portuguese, and titles include "Dindi", "O Barquinho", "Agua De Beber", "No More Blues", "Triste", "Wave", "Vivo Sonhando", and "Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar". CD
