Product description QUINCY JONES - BIG BAND BOSSA NOVA - CD Amazon.com Even when he was a full-time jazz cat, Quincy Jones always had an ear for the pop aesthetic. This 1962 record does contain a good bit of, how you say, queijo in its unsubtle arrangements, but it is for the most part an accessible, entertaining, and bubbly affair. And with musicians of the caliber of , , , (who can't help but be tasteful), and all contributing ideas, a baseline quality is assured. Most significantly, Jones goes beyond the expected and Bonfa cuts to fit Lerner & Loewe and even into bossa nova's bright clothes. --Marc Greilsamer
