Aquarius Producoes Artisticas: Wave [1972]

I'm told that "Aquarius Producoes Artisticas" = Marcos Valle and Azymuth. This is from an album called Brazil By Music: Fly Cruzeiro, which was produced for Cruzeiro Airlines, either for promotional purposes or (I hope) for in-flight listening. It seems to me that the melody of this Jobim standard somehow contains the meaning of life, and, like most great easy-listening tunes, it sounds a bit like this.

own it for 9,800 yen

  1. Hey Emmett,
    Thanks for the tasty Stones tracks. I know I have inquired a number of times, any chance for those Bowie/Stevie Ray tracks? Thanks

  2. If I boarded a plane and this was playing, I would immediately deplane and voluntarily send myself through security a second time.

  5. Hmmm...I have Sinatra doing this (marvellous, mature, moving) and I have the Jobim original(breezy!). And I love your stuff Emmett(you know this) and it may be Marcos Valle and Azymuth, respect to them both. But you know what? If I boarded the plane and this was playing I'd be TRAMPLING over Mike to get off before him.

    Still love what you do though man x
