It might seem to veer towards easy listening, but avoid that presumption and the magic of Jobim's lyrical melodies emerges
After the success that Wave brought to Antônio Carlos Jobim in 1967, A&M were not going to hold back investing in what seemed like the appropriate sequel for this mostly instrumental album. What we have here is a reissue of the sixth album released by the Brazilian maestro, produced by Creed Taylor and engineered by Rudy Van Gelder. Tide features a combination of famous US jazz stars such as Ron Carter as well as notable Brazilian musicians including Hermeto Pascoal.
