Each song on the album feels like a mini-vacation to a tropical paradise, where the worries of the world melt away in the presence of Gilberto's enchanting voice. Overall, "Great Women of Song" is a masterclass in bossa nova perfection. Gilberto's timeless vocals combined with the impeccable production make this album a must-have for any music lover.
