Bliss.......2003-04-02

"Samba Blim" was the follow up to A&Ms release of "We and the Sea" and it is really nice to see it out on CD.
This is a more accesable and generally lighter set than its predecessor but that should not be considered a criticism. This is about as nice as Bossa Nova gets. Beautiful music with substance and a lot of heart.
The reason I only gave this four stars is because my experience with "Samba Blim" is limited to the LP. One of the LPs virtues was the tasteful recording job done by Rudy Van Gelder. Occasionally high end re-mastering can result in overly bright CDs.
Even so, the worse that could happen is that you will have to thottle back the treble a little bit. Highly recommended.

Samba Great.......2006-08-15

I had this record album many years ago. I literally wore it out because it was played so many times. So, when the CD became available, I purchased it right away. This is the quintessence of 60's Brazilian jazz. If this is your taste in music, you will love this CD. Relax, sit back and enjoy!

More 5-Star Bossa Nova beyond Jobim & Gilberto.......2004-11-22

Tamba 4 is Tamba Trio with one more member who entered the group just for these CTi sessions. Tamba Trio was one of the most creative and successful trios among the so-many Brazilian Bossa Nova trios.

Luiz Eca was the late genius at the piano and behind the string arrangements (refer to his beautiful arrangement of Michel Legrand's 'Watch What Happens'). Bebeto was the multi-instrumentalist on sax, bass and flute. Elcio Milito was the drummer. Both Eca and Bebeto contributed inventive vocals for the original Tamba Trio/Tamba 4 ensemble, a distinctive mix of instrumental trio with vocals.

Their longtime career in Brazil includes Tamba Trio solo albums and also a big set of standard albums in collaboration with so many big Bossa Nova artists with memorable results.

Legends say Creed Taylor would not have liked these Tamba 4 sessions results! However Japanese Polygram/A&M discovered this material within the label's files and issued this album for the 40th year celebration of Bossa Nova what made it a big hit among those who sample Bossa Nova.

Here you'll find some Bossa Nova standards - "Palladium', 'Samba Blim', 'Tristeza de Nos Dois', and 'San Salvador' were all big hits in Brazil. Also includes Edu Lobo's Reza and an inspired cover of Herb Alpert & Tijuana Brass' hit 'Slick'.

A must-have album.

Any Serious Bossa Nova Collection Must Include "Samba Blim".......1999-06-11

Tamba 4 began as a trio in the late fifties in Brazil. Luiz Eça at the piano and arrangments, Bebeto on flute and Hélcio Milito on drums are the key members who made Tamba one of the most important models of Bossa Nova. Gorgeous sound, contageous rhythm.

Tamba 4 is music for the thinking person.......1999-05-11

The Brasilian jazz sound of Tamba 4 isn't to be confused with easy listening. The music is quiet and soothing, but there's a lot of subtle qualities to be discovered by careful listening. The group includes Luiz Eca (piano), Ohana (percussion), Bebeto (flutes) and Dorio (bass/percussion). The group is backed by a large string section. My favorite tracks are "Watch What Happens," "Reza" and "Slick" (a Tijuana Brass tune). SAMBA BLIM was issued on vinyl as A&M CTI SP 3013 in 1968, their second for the label. The first, WE AND THE SEA (SP 3004) is more experimental and forceful. There also is rumored to exist a third previously unreleased album. It would be great to see all of this fine unit's work reissued on domestic CDs.
