The Girl From Ipanema
Silk 'N' Roses
Jackie Gleason
Produced by Dick Jones
Recording Engineer: Bob Arnold
Capitol Records SW 2409
1965
From the back cover: The tempos range from softly lilting, to medium, to fast, the styles from bossa nova and jazz waltz through ballads with a beat. The arrangements are by George Williams, and the solo passages are by two first-rate horn men who have been featured in pervious Gleason albums, Pee Wee Erwin on trumpet and Charlie Ventura on tenor sax.
From Billboard - November 20, 1965: Once again Jackie Gleason has whipped up a lush orchestra sound to deliver a flock of flavorsome melodies. The repertoire is varied, covering jazz, bossa nova and ballad beats. The treatment is uniformly excellent.
