Sinatra and Jobim " This Happy Madness"
This is a 4 party collaboration. Antonio Carlos Jobim wrote the infectious bossa nova melody ; Gene Lees penned the intriguingly sly lyrics; Claus Ogerman crafted the pulsating yet restrained arrangement and Sinatra puts it all together. Music is certainly universal since this piece involved a Brazilian, a Canadian, a German and an Italian American.
Would that international relations could be governed by the same spirit of collegiality.

The second Jobim album was arranged by Deodato... Not Claus Ogerman.
