by
Frank Sinatra
By 1967, bossa nova had become quite popular within jazz and traditional pop audiences, yet Frank Sinatra hadn't attempted any Brazil-influenced material. Sinatra decided to record a full-fledged bossa nova album with the genre's leading composer, Antonio Carlos Jobim. Arranged by Claus Ogerman and featuring Jobim on guitar and backing vocals, ...

by
Stan Getz/Joao Gilberto
Justifiably overshadowed by the peerless Getz/Gilberto album (which featured "Girl From Ipanema") from a year before, Getz/Gilberto #2 still holds its own with an appealing selection of fine jazz and bossa nova cuts. Unlike the first album's seamless collaboration by Getz, Joao Gilberto, Astrud Gilberto, and Antonio Carlos Jobim, here Getz and ...

by
Astrud Gilberto
Astrud Gilberto has never been properly anthologized by Verve Records; although they've released a number of compilations over the years, none of them have been definitive, and most of them have been rather skimpy. 1987's The Silver Collection, originally released only in Europe but later imported to North America, is an idiosyncratic selection. ...

Charlie Byrd Trio
Guitarist Charlie Byrd revisits a variety of bossa nova songs, including nine by Antonio Carlos Jobim on this pleasing and accessible set. What makes this CD stand out from his many similar dates is that Ken Peplowski's clarinet and tenor are well featured, adding variety to the music and a lead voice for Byrd to play off of. Otherwise the music ...

Jazz Moods: Brazilian Romance creates a cool, lilting bossa nova atmosphere underpinned by sensuous rhythms that help set the mood suggested by the title.

Byrd by the Sea
(1974)
more music like this
by
Charlie Byrd
Mild, smooth trio date with Byrd playing light jazz, occasional Afro-Latin, and even a mock classical number, backed by bassist Joe Byrd and drummer Bertell Knox. This sometimes comes close to, but never becomes, mood music. The 2000 reissue approximately doubles the length of the original release with seven previously unissued tracks (none ...

Compact Jazz: Best of Bossa Nova
(1987)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
Ah, boss nova American style: a sea of white dinner jackets shimmying to Getz, poolside. Beyond images from many a bossa soundtracked ‘60s movie, though, the music itself was something to behold. Teaching jazz a bit more about it's already graceful mien, bossa nova found its most regal stateside purveyor in Stan Getz. Getz's classic work with both ...

While it's unquestionably true that saxophonist Dexter Gordon is best known for his Blue Note sides made between 1960 and 1965, it is on his Prestige recordings, the vast majority of which were taped between 1969 and 1973, where the full depth and breadth of his gift and contribution are documented. What's more, this box finally sets the ...

Oscar Peterson augmented his regular working trio of the time (bassist Sam Jones and drummer Louis Hayes) with Henley Gibson on congas, Marshall Thompson on timbales, and Harold Jones as an added percussionist for this release, which focuses mostly on the music of Brazilian composers (so the title Soul Espanõl is a bit misleading).

Antonio Carlos Jobim
Antonio Carlos Jobim's Quiet Now: Nights of Quiet Stars is probably the most successful entry in this series of Polygram reissues, because the Brazilian composer's music is so blissfully suited to compilations that focus on the gentle, romantic side of jazz. Perhaps it's his sleepy, low-key voice, which makes Perry Como sound like Darby Crash, or ...

When guitarist Charlie Byrd scored big on Stan Getz's Jazz Samba in 1962, he found a niche that served him well for the next 35 years. Byrd, however, no more invented bossa nova than Getz. Instead, both men proved masterful interpreters of a music defined by composers like Antonio Carlos Jobim. Plays Jobim represents a marriage of style and vision ...

While it's true that all of the songs on Seriously Good Music: Bossa Nova should in fact be considered bossa nova (something that cannot always be said with regard to all of Petrol's releases), the album certainly misses most of the names that defined that genre. Antonio Carlos Jobim, for example, is found only in the fact that he co-wrote three ...
