Is that Stan Getz?
I love his work, and especially his work with the Bossa Nova sound.
I just learned of her work about a year ago. She and Stan Getz
sure were great together.
A different, much cooler world. Beautiful sound
Great!
Great music...it still is.
Gotta love beat jazz and the surrounding universe.
Youtube ruins it with all the over the top ads.
I won’t watch those.
When I first heard this on a local jazz channel, I was mystified. What a beautiful piece. Took me another month to find out who it was. Gilberto was a genius.
Such an innocent voice and singing style like no other.
There is another “corcovado,” an instrumental, and even better by Jobim. Absolutely beautiful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W47F2MJDT28
One of the best bossa nova albums ever produced is Jobim’s “Wave”.
A true joy to listen and relax to. Very sensual too.
You may enjoy Ana Caram, Tom Jobim and their version of “Meditation”. It is simply brilliant:
My favorite music genre, thanks for posting......
lovely. wonderful song to play on guitar.
Imagine sitting on the terrace with a warm breeze, palms swaying, waves lapping at the shore, a Brazilian beauty cooing this song at the real original Copacabana in Rio feeling a little like James Bond. I have. It was wonderful.
The same at Hotel Tamanaco in Caracas was actually better. Argentine steaks, Cuban cigars and all the other trappings of a seductive tropical night.
Great memories of my world traveling days. I got to see and experience a lot good and not so much. I fix on the good.
Thanks for posting. That was simply lovely. It soothes my mind.
The woman has the voice of an angel. Here’s my favorite Astrid Gilberto tune - “Berimbau” , featuring an amazing arrangement by Gil Evans:
