Our Take
The latest offering from the legendary Astrud Gilberto, "Astrud Gilberto Now," is a delightful step back in time to the golden era of bossa nova. With her signature ethereal vocals and impeccable phrasing, Gilberto effortlessly transports listeners to a sun-drenched beach in Rio de Janeiro. The album kicks off with the breezy "Água de Beber," setting the tone for what's to come - a collection of classic tunes that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Gilberto's rendition of "Berimbau" is a standout track, showcasing her ability to infuse even the most melancholic songs with a sense of joy. Throughout "Astrud Gilberto Now," Gilberto's voice floats effortlessly over lush arrangements, courtesy of some of the finest musicians in the genre. Tracks like "Canto de Ossanha" and "Photograph" perfectly capture the essence of bossa nova, blending traditional rhythms with modern sensibilities. While some may dismiss Gilberto as a relic of the past, "Astrud Gilberto Now" proves that her music is as relevant today as it was in the 1960s. This album is a reminder of the timeless beauty of bossa nova, and Gilberto's unparalleled talent as a vocalist. So grab a caipirinha, sit back, and let Astrud Gilberto transport you to a world of sun, sand, and samba. Obrigado, Astrud.
