Our Take

In the grand tradition of combining bossa nova with jazz, Ramsey Lewis delivers a smooth and groovy album that is sure to transport you to a sun-drenched beach in Rio. "Bossa Nova" is a delightful fusion of breezy melodies, infectious rhythms, and Lewis' signature piano playing that is nothing short of sublime.

From the moment the album kicks off with the infectious opener "Samba del Sol," you know you're in for a treat. Lewis' expert musicianship shines through on every track, whether he's laying down intricate piano solos on "Tropical Breeze" or creating a dreamy atmosphere on "Moonlit Nights."

The album's standout track, "Bossa Ciudad," is a masterclass in bossa nova-infused jazz, with Lewis' piano playing effortlessly blending with the sultry horns and infectious percussion. It's the kind of song that will have you swaying along in no time, lost in its irresistible groove.

But what truly sets "Bossa Nova" apart is Lewis' ability to inject a sense of fun and playfulness into every track. There's a sense of joy and spontaneity that runs through the album, making it impossible not to smile as you listen.

In conclusion, "Bossa Nova" is a joyous celebration of two timeless musical genres, expertly brought to life by the legendary Ramsey Lewis. It's the perfect soundtrack for lazy summer days or late-night gatherings with friends - just make sure you have your dancing shoes on. Cheers to Ramsey Lewis for another stellar addition to his already impressive discography.
