The Composer of Desafinado, Plays

The Composer of Desafinado, Plays (1963) more music like this

by Antonio Carlos Jobim

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, ...

The Man from Ipanema

The Man from Ipanema (1963) more music like this

by Antonio Carlos Jobim

Issued nearly a year after Jobim's death, this three-CD set is ground zero, the place to start if you don't have any Jobim in your collection or for anyone who wants a single package of his multifaceted art. The set encompasses not only Jobim's own sporadic work for Verve from 1963 until his final 1994 Carnegie Hall concert and the two A&M albums ...

Vince & Bola (And Friends)/Live at El Matador (2000) more music like this

by Vince Guaraldi & Bola Sete

Actually, Sete only plays on two of the seven songs ("More" and "O Morro Nao Tem Vez") on the latter album, but no ...

Compact Jazz: Best of Bossa Nova

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 ...

Quiet Now: Nights of Quiet Stars

Quiet Now: Nights of Quiet Stars (1999) more music like this

by 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 ...

Tudo Azul (2007) more music like this

by Susan Pereira and Sabor Brasil

With the incredible output of jazz CDs by new artists in first decade of the 21st century, it is a challenge for someone to stand out with a debut recording. But vocalist/pianist/composer Susan Pereira, gifted with a beautiful voice, terrific keyboard chops and a knack for arranging, is the exception to the rule, backed by a strong rotating cast ...

Jazz 'Round Midnight: Bossa Nova (1998) more music like this

by Stan Getz

Although it shouldn't be mistaken for a definitive compilation of his bossa nova recordings, Jazz 'Round Midnight: Bossa Nova is a good sampler of Stan Getz's most popular work, featuring 13 tracks including "Desafinado," "Bahia," "Ebony Samba," "It Might As Well Be Spring," "Sambalero" and "The Girl from Ipanema."

Brazilian Heart (1985) more music like this

by April Aloisio

April Aloisio is a soft-toned vocalist whose sensuous and cool voice is perfect for bossa-nova. Half of the tunes on her impressive disc are in that genre and she proves that she can also sing straightahead jaz and scat quite effectively too. Aloisio is featured in a wide variety of settings from the 1985-94 period yet the program has a strong ...

Collectables Classics [Box Set] (2006) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes

By and large, this Collectables Classics series, compiling a slew of albums on X amount of CDs and dropping them in a wooden box, is a problematic exercise and is of dubious worth. It leaves too much to chance. However, this collection of Sergio Mendes' early, pre-A&M and later, post-A&M material, doesn't fall into that category completely. This ...

Jazz Samba Encore! (1963) more music like this

by Stan Getz/Luiz Bonfa

Here's some more bossa nova from Stan Getz when the bloom was still on the first Brazilian boom. This time, however, on his third such album, Getz relies mostly upon native Brazilians for his backing. Thus, the soft-focused grooves are considerably more attuned to what was actually coming out of Brazil at the time. Two bona fide giants, Antonio ...

Think Global: Acoustic Brazil (2008) more music like this

Though not all the artists included on Think Global: Acoustic Brazil are very well known, there's a diverse selection of music included here, everyone from Chico Buarque to Marcos Sacramento to Paulo Moura to Maria Bethânia. It's not a compilation meant for people exploring the Brazilian music scene, but for someone familiar with the various ...

Gold (2008) more music like this

by Astrud Gilberto

Astrud Gilberto, the winsome naïf whose girlish yet sultry vocals captivated the world on the hit "The Girl from Ipanema," earned her own contract with Verve from its success and recorded throughout the last half of the '60s. Although her material wavered in quality, she was usually paired with excellent arrangers such as Gil Evans, Claus Ogerman, ...

The Bossa Nova Albums (2008) more music like this

by Stan Getz

The Bossa Nova Albums collects five of the pinnacle recordings from the best American foray into Brazilian jazz, which began in 1962 with the Stan Getz/Charlie Byrd collaboration Jazz Samba and peaked one year later with the fourth album in the ad hoc series, Getz/Gilberto (which would have been better titled Getz/Gilberto/Jobim ). Getz/Gilberto ...

The Astrud Gilberto Album (1965) more music like this

by Astrud Gilberto with Antonio Carlos Jobim

Astrud Gilberto became an accidental success when her fragile command of English made her the de facto choice to sing "The Girl from Ipanema" at a session led by Stan Getz and her husband, João Gilberto. Of course, despite its overwhelming success, it wasn't clear that she could sustain a career when she recorded her first solo LP, The Astrud ...
