There's a thing about Hollywood where there are at least a couple of guys that behind closed doors and in small circles we think of as having a magical P. T. Barnum quality.

I had been to São Paulo the year before and became pretty well acquainted with the music of composer Antonio Carlos Jobim, I had already started playing that music, and the audience response had been pretty good because those songs are so melodic.
