Musikalia - Asturd Gilberto - Beach Samba

Ciertamente el desarrollo de las canciones se acerca más al lounge o al pop que a la samba que se menciona en el título, pero de todo modos es un placer sumergirse en canciones como “Stay”, que abre el disco marcando ya las líneas maestras del mismo, la deliciosa y calmadamente festiva “The face I love” o la versión del tema de Tim Hardin, “Misty roses”.
