Album Notes

The tracks in this CD incorporate the best of Antonio Carlos Jobim's work ranging from the purely melodius "Amor Em Paz", and then the classic "Girl From Ipanema" which Kim performs in both the instrumental and vocal versions. Kim's mastery of the sax,flute, vibes and his smooth vocal renditions fully interpret the style of Jobim's creative genius. To listen to Kim's arrangement of "Corcovado" (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars) is to be immediately transported to an exotic Rio night. So sit back and relax "So Jobim by Kim Bankston" is here for your enjoyment. Antonio Carlos Jobim is pure essential Brazilian jazz. He has worked with Stan Getz, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and many other jazz greats.
