Robert Lamm's new solo album "The Bossa Project" has just arrived. As the title shows, this one is Bossa Nova flavored album. Robert Lamm started this project from late 2005, when not touring with the band Chicago, with John Van Eps, began writing and choosing jazz standard songs Robert has always loved. Robert explains "We couldn't decide if this was going to be Bossa Electronic, or Organic/Acoustic, both approaches were sounding good in the early going. We decided to show both sides with John's great 're-mixing' skills, on 3 tracks: Girl Talk, Samba in Your Life, and Nice 'n' Easy. This project was a labor of love, truly, I could have kept recording for another year, but we were out of time and financing. I really loved exploring the lower ranges of my vocals, and lower volume and velocity of the Bossa Nova style. I have always had the greatest respect for the Brasilian artists who emerged in the 60's and 70's. This album is my bow of acknowledgment." Enjoy another side of Robert Lamm by listening to this brand new album!
