 Review
Blame It On The Bossa Nova is of course a great classic hit, arranged by Marion Evans, written by the great pop-rock writers Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil. But when it came to albums Eydie and her labels adamantly refused to satisfy us with more pop-rock. For pop-rock hit parade fans they were lame pop-jazz collections, not even including her hit singles. For this one they figured the hit suggested Latin music, and they went with the current jazz-samba style of Desafinado. Pop fans can run for the hills.
There are reissue collections now that do collect her pop-rock singles. If there was a rating for the entire album I'd give it 2.
On the back cover notice Al Caiola doing his guitar session work. He was actually at home with this style, even tho United Artists used him on single releases in a Duane Eddy big guitar style.
