My goal was not only to make a bossa nova album that pays tribute to the “Masters” who I’ve been listening to (Cannonball Adderley, Paul Desmond and Stan Getz) but also to write and record original bossa novas that I hope can ‘hold their own’ in this distinguished company. I think I've listened to that record almost every day for the past 5 years and it really was the inspiration in making this album. And more recently I’ve been listening (non-stop!) to Stan Getz’s album called Getz For Lovers. “I think the first song that ‘won me over’ was Cannonball Adderley’s version of “Quiet Nights”. “I’ve been in love with bossa nova my whole life,” says the saxophonist in the album’s liner notes. That reputation for musical curiosity stays well intact on his fourteenth studio album Brazilian Nights.
