For this CD reissue the music on singer
Astrud Gilberto's album
Look to the Rainbow is combined with half of the songs from her following album,
A Certain Smile, A Certain Sadness. The former session was one of the bossa nova singer's best (11 perfectly suitable songs on which her soft voice is accompanied by an orchestra arranged by
Gil Evans and
Al Cohn), while on the latter she interacts successfully with a trio led by organist
Walter Wanderley. [This version of the album includes bonus material.] ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
