1	Jazz Samba (1962) more music like this by Stan Getz/Charlie Byrd add to wishlist Partly because of its Brazilian collaborators and partly because of "The Girl From Ipanema," Getz/Gilberto is nearly always acknowledged as the Stan Getz bossa nova LP. But Jazz Samba is just as crucial and groundbreaking; after all, it came first, and in fact was the first full-fledged bossa nova album ever recorded by American jazz musicians. ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $15.32!
2	Greatest Hits of Brasil '66 (1970) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 add to wishlist Released along with a slew of other A&M greatest-hits collections, 1970's Greatest Hits takes listeners through a dozen Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 tunes from the albums Herb Alpert Presents through Crystal Illusions. Not all of these were hits -- indeed, not all of them were singles -- and they are not representative of the wide range of Brazilian ... see all copies from $2.74! new only from $6.00!
3	Cannonball's Bossa Nova (1962) more music like this by Julian "Cannonball" Adderley With The Bossa Rio Sextet Of Brazil add to wishlist A pleasant date recorded in late 1962 with South American musicians the Bossa Rio Sextet of Brazil. Cannonball is heard alongside Sergio Mendes on piano, future Weather Report percussionist Dom Um Romao, and featured on five cuts is Paulo Moura on alto saxophone with Pedro Paulo on trumpet. This session was originally released on Riverside, but ... see all copies from $9.91! new only from $9.91!
4	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Antonio Carlos Jobim (2005) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim add to wishlist Pieced together from various albums to showcase what a remarkably consistent songwriter and performer Antonio Carlos Jobim was, Hip-O's 20th Century Masters - The Best of Antonio Carlos Jobim opens with two of Jobim's compositions from Stan Getz and João Gilberto's quintessential bossa nova record, Getz/Gilberto, before threading through his own ... see all copies from $7.65! new only from $7.65!
5	Putumayo Presents: Samba Bossa Nova (2002) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The burgeoning new scene in Brazilian music that began in 2000 continues to grow, as a new generation reinterprets and redefines the classic ideas of samba and bossa nova. Some are the children of those who made the music in the first place, while others simply have their own take on the sound, and this compilation does a fair, if not complete, ... see all copies from $6.69! new only from $12.49!
6	Live at the Blue Note (2006) more music like this by Gal Costa add to wishlist Brazilian music legend and superstar (the Brazilians never, ever forget their heroes, they keep buying their records and attending their concerts until they drop) Gal Costa played to a very small jazz club crowd at the Blue Note in New York City in May of 2006. This recording on the DRG label is the complete recording of that performance. Costa ... see all copies from $14.58! new only from $14.58!
7	O Universo Musical de Baden Powell (2003) more music like this by Baden Powell add to wishlist see all copies from $16.88! new only from $16.88!
8	Live in Montreux (1991) more music like this by João Gilberto add to wishlist The eminence grise of bossa nova steps halfway out of the shadows in a performance that, as always, adds new depth to the word reflective. Guitar of perfect simplicity backs vocals at once provisional-seeming and definitive. The songs themselves mix standards like "Aquarela do Brasil" and "Garota de Ipanema" with less familiar songs. ~ John Storm ... see all copies from $15.38! new only from $15.38!
9	Brazil Classics, Vol. 1: Beleza Tropical (1989) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Brazil Classics, Beleza Tropical is the first in a series compiled by Talking Heads singer David Byrne that preceded the big wave of interest in Tropicalia during the late '90s by almost a decade. Performers include such influential Brazilian figures as Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, and Jorge Ben, with several songs from each. The selected ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.00!
10	Red Hot + Rio (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Now this is an interesting project; Brazilian standards and newly-composed music interpreted or transfigured by the old masters, rock stars and cutting-edge '90s musicians - with all the proceeds going to fight the spread of AIDS. What is so remarkable about this album is how wholeheartedly the younger musicians relate to the cruising Brazilian ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.51!
11	Wave (1967) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim add to wishlist When Creed Taylor left Verve/MGM for his own label under the auspices of A&M, he quickly signed Antonio Carlos Jobim and they picked up right where they left off with this stunningly seductive record, possibly Jobim's best. Jobim contributes his sparely rhythmic acoustic guitar, simple melodic piano style, a guest turn at the harpsichord, and even ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $9.16!
12	Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 (1966) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 add to wishlist After bouncing around Philips, Atlantic, and Capitol playing Brazilian jazz or searching for an ideal blend of Brazilian and American pop, Sergio Mendes struck gold on his first try at A&M (then not much more than the home of Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass and the Baja Marimba Band). He came up with a marvelously sleek, sexy formula: dual ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.14!
13	Look Around (1968) more music like this by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 add to wishlist Sergio Mendes took a deep breath, expanded his sound to include strings lavishly arranged by the young Dave Grusin and Dick Hazard, went further into Brazil, and out came a gorgeous record of Brasil '66 at the peak of its form. Here Mendes released himself from any reliance upon Antonio Carlos Jobim and rounded up a wealth of truly great material ... see all copies from $3.68! new only from $9.18!
14	Tanto Tempo (2000) more music like this by Bebel Gilberto add to wishlist After working with artists like Caetano Veloso, David Byrne, and Towa Tei, Bebel Gilberto made her solo recording debut in the U.S. with Tanto Tempo, licensed for American release in 2000 by Six Degrees. It's an album of stylish, cool, contemporary bossa nova, with Gilberto's vocals a bit more assured and polished than Astrud Gilberto's classic ... see all copies from $4.47! new only from $8.99!
15	Getz/Gilberto (1963) more music like this by Stan Getz/João Gilberto add to wishlist One of the biggest-selling jazz albums of all time, not to mention bossa nova's finest moment, Getz/Gilberto trumped Jazz Samba by bringing two of bossa nova's greatest innovators -- guitarist/singer João Gilberto and composer/pianist Antonio Carlos Jobim -- to New York to record with Stan Getz. The results were magic. Ever since Jazz Samba, the ... see all copies from $6.98! new only from $15.34!
16	Double Rainbow: The Music of Antonio Carlos Jobim (1994) more music like this by Joe Henderson add to wishlist The third of tenor-saxophonist Joe Henderson's tribute CDs on Verve was originally supposed to be a collaboration with the great bossa nova composer Antonio Carlos Jobim but Jobim's unexpected death turned this project into a memorial. Henderson performs a dozen of the composer's works with one of two separate groups: a Brazilian quartet starring ... see all copies from $2.28! new only from $9.01!
17	Getz for Lovers (2002) more music like this by Stan Getz add to wishlist This 15-cut collection of Stan Getz ballads runs the gamut from his early bossa hits with João and Astrud Gilberto to his ballad performances with Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, and Jim Hall. These are laid-back, beautifully arranged tracks in superior sound. While it is not a well-rounded collection of Stan Getz material, it is an essential ballads ... see all copies from $4.38! new only from $9.10!
18	The Composer of Desafinado, Plays (1963) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim add to wishlist In his first American album, Antonio Carlos Jobim presents a dozen of his songs, each one destined to become a standard -- an astounding batting average. Jobim, who claimed to have been out of practice at the time of the session, merely plays single notes on the piano with one hand, punctuated by chords now and then, sticking to his long, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.88!
19	Brazil (2000) more music like this by Rosemary Clooney & John Pizzarelli add to wishlist As one of the most loved jazz vocalists, modern jazz heroines, and prolific vocalists, Rosemary Clooney gives a very beautiful and feminine side to Brazilian jazz on Brazil, a sensitive musical feeling of 16 ripe standards. This wonderful collection is dedicated to Antonio Carlos Jobim, Frank Sinatra, and Nelson Riddle through her amazing ambience ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.95!
20	Timeless (2006) more music like this by Sergio Mendes add to wishlist It's easy to think that since Santana made his big comeback using a lot of contemporary pop stars it would become the formula for the artists of yore to edge their way back into the limelight. Sergio Mendes, the best-selling Brazilian recording artist of all time, hasn't made a platter in eight years. He plays piano on a Black Eyed Peas track -- ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.34!
21	Girl from Ipanema: The Antonio Carlos Jobim Songbook (1995) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim add to wishlist The first of several tribute albums issued just after Antonio Carlos Jobim's death, this one generally sticks to his most famous songs as interpreted by several Brazilian and American artists from PolyGram's archives. Jobim himself appears on such obvious choices as the best-selling Stan Getz, João Gilberto, and Astrud Gilberto hit "The Girl from ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $8.16!
22	Chesky Records Jazz Sampler & Audiophile Test Compact Disc, Vol. 1 (1990) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Audiophiles can be an incredibly fussy bunch. They won't hesitate to spend thousands of dollars on audio equipment, whereas other music lovers can be quite happy with a system that costs 300 dollars, 200 dollars, or less. And when it comes to sound quality, audiophiles notice subtle imperfections that non-audiophiles tend to overlook. Audiophiles ... see all copies from $7.06! new only from $7.06!
23	Verve Jazz Masters 13 (1994) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim add to wishlist see all copies from $3.64! new only from $9.14!
24	Verve Jazz Masters 53: Bossa Nova (1996) more music like this by Stan Getz add to wishlist As an entryway into Stan Getz's mid-'60s bossa nova output, this is neither as comprehensive as the four-CD set The Bossa Nova Years, nor as satisfying as the original albums in terms of sequencing and mood. It is, however, acceptable as a sampler to the newcomer, who in any event can re-program the order by grouping together the tracks from each ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.14!
25	Nova Bossa: Red Hot on Verve (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist In the hope that Red Hot + Rio would ignite interest in Brazilian music within the X-Generation, Verve simultaneously released a historical survey with similar cover art, similar noise interludes between tracks, and occasionally, the same tunes (do not be confused!). Although some of the same old stuff reissued a thousand times before is here (the ... see all copies from $2.86! new only from $9.10!
