Editorial Reviews for "Antonio and Jon"
Bob Blumenthal,Jazz Critic
"Jim Porcella poses himself a difficult two-pronged test here and passes it with flying colors. The unusual harmonies and rhythmic subtleties of Antonio Carlos Jobim's music are as challenging as the tongue-twisting hairpin turns of Jon Hedricks' lyrics, yet both sound second nature to Porcella."
Carroll Coates, Lyricist/composer, Berkley, California
"Another significant milestone in a blossoming career."
