On the single, Kaylene performs in Portuguese, English, and solos on flute. Bunny Brunel plays (Brazilian) rhythm guitar, solos brilliantly on fretless bass at the head and the close of the song while holding the groove on upright.
“Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars)”
Praised as a masterpiece, Romantic Bossa-Nova is superb!This version of “Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars)” is one of the most unique arrangements ever recorded of the Jobim classic since the Astrud/Getz release. In this melancholy trip to Sao Paulo, Peoples transports us with her flawless pronunciation and rich vocal nuances. – Schmooze Jazz Magazine
Romantic Bossa-Nova was “Album of the Week” on SmoothJazz.FM (Portugal, Brazil, & Canada)
