Review: Two For Brazil plays TWO FOR NOEL is one of the most mellow, lovable jazz CDs celebrating the holidays to appear in many years! Great tunes, great performances!
Paulinho Garcia on vocals and guitars with Greg Fishman on tenor saxophone and flute are one of the finest Brazilian sounds to appear, and together they come a winner with this CD collection of 14 songs. The duo work flawlessly and in perfect unison with each song selection, and the renditions of Lennon's "Happy Christmas," Gannon/Kent's "I'll Be Home For Christmas," and Mel Torme/Robert Wells' "The Christmas Song" are perfect examples of the artistry of Garcia and Fishman! Other selections include "Silent Night," "Frosty The Snowman," "O Holy Night," Silver Bells," among others. Every selection is a listening delight for jazz fans!
If you are looking for something smooth and Brazilian and genuinely emotional, TWO FOR NOEL is the most polished CD around in this category! A real charmer, one that will be played again and again for all seasons! This is Garcia and Fishman at their best. A five-star winner. Excellent production values and enjoyable from start to finish. This is a classic jazz CD of its kind, with something enjoyable for everybody whatever the season! Give this one a try! Nice!
