Antonio Carlos Jobim strolling the streets on Manhattan in 1962.
"1962, my first time walking the streets of New York City with my dear friend and mentor maestro Antonio Carlos Jobim. Completely surreal... for a young kid from Niteroi to get this opportunity... This was the moment when the Bossa Nova craze began in America."
~ Sergio Mendes

"James Dean was more than a phenomenon or even a legend. He was far more than a cinematic genius who could act his balls off. He was simply the greatest screen experience of all time. The fact that he was cut off in his prime is unfortunate but irrelevant. The three films he left us with stand as their own monument. He remains indestructible."
- Sammy Davis Jr.
