Some of the best music on the planet came out of Astrid and Gilberto and Jobim. RIP

She also sang “fly Eastern, number one to the sun” in their commercials back in the late ‘60s.

I used to like this song in the 60's and 70's when Bossa Nova was in it's zenith.
this generation only knows it from the recent netflix version of "the girl from ipanema" which was used as a platform for feminaziism , an entire series dedicated to how horrible men are.
kind of a shame that the song got hijacked by feminist netflix propaganda ( but I still bingewatched (cringewatched) the entire series

She was singing the song as a demo, her vocals are never intended to be released. Jaoa Gilberto's daughter by another wife, Babel is a good singer.

It would be fitting if her funeral cortege included a trip on an elevator.
RIP

Luckily with the advent of Apple Music I was able to take a deep dive on all things Astrud. Then flipped to Sergio Mendes. What a beautiful morning. It is nice to be old enough to remember such great tuneage. While we didn’t listen much as a kid favoring the pop music like the Beatles—that great music did filter into our consciousness and we are able to conjour up the memories and enjoy
Thank you Astrud!
