travlin'easy Senior Member Registered: 12/08/02 Posts: 15576 Loc: Forest Hill, MD USA	The Pop Bossa Nova style, third variation, with a tempo of 132 seems to fit very nicely.

saxxman Senior Member Registered: 10/15/05 Posts: 1433 Loc: Niceville, FL USA	Thanks Guys! I will give them a try. And Gary, enjoy that sailing! I have a 20 foot fishing boat, but the cost of gas and oil has made me settle for a "BK Big Fish". HA HA. Thanks again!

tony mads usa Senior Member Registered: 01/16/02 Posts: 14376 Loc: East Greenwich RI USA	Anyone have the sheet music for this tune? thnx, t. PS ... quite a difference in the feel between the Randy Crawford version: http://cadillacslim.imeem.com/music/xnDv1OSd/randy_crawford_rio_de_janeiro_blue/ and the Mario Biondi Version http://beemp3.com/download.php?file=460790&song=Rio+De+Janeiro+Blue t.

travlin'easy Senior Member Registered: 12/08/02 Posts: 15576 Loc: Forest Hill, MD USA	Tony, I agree. I really liked the Randy Crawford version best, and I would like the music, or at least the chords for it as well.

Thanks, Gary I'm a fan of Randy Crawford, but I thought Biondi has a 'cool' sounding voice ... t. _________________________ t.

tony mads usa Senior Member Registered: 01/16/02 Posts: 14376 Loc: East Greenwich RI USA	Here's a link to a digital sheet music source ... you first have to D/L some free software ... http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/scorch.asp?ppn=SC0007603 But if anyone already has it and is willing to share it, free is ALWAYS better, right ?!?! t. _________________________ t.

tony mads usa Senior Member Registered: 01/16/02 Posts: 14376 Loc: East Greenwich RI USA	Gary ... yes, I knew there was a cost for the music ... one advantage - for at least some of the tunes - you can transpose it to the key you want ... very handy for 'vocalists' like myself who can't always sing the tune in the original key ... t. _________________________ t.

She was in the "trenches" a long time before she got her well deserved recognition and accompanying fame. I sat in with her once at, I think, the WNOP jazz fest years ago. She's earned her place of respect among jazz fans. Russ
