Greatest Hits (1962) more music like this

by Vince Guaraldi

First released on LP in 1980, this compilation concentrates upon bite-sized samples from Vince Guaraldi's Fantasy catalog. Naturally, Fantasy includes famous tunes like "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" and "Linus and Lucy," but there are also some superb sleepers ("Star Song," Jobim's "Outra Vez") that display Guaraldi's wonderful melodic gift, and ...

The Gringo Guide to Bossa Nova (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

If any conglomerate is capable of doing a "bossa nova for gringos" compilation, it's Universal. They have been issuing (through their spidery collection of labels) bossa records internationally, and to a lesser extent here in the States for nearly 50 years. This little set is pretty nifty even if that wasn't intentional. It's not an obvious ...

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 ...

Sinfonia Do Rio de Janeiro (2006) more music like this

by Antonio Carlos Jobim

This is a historically valuable reissue of mid-'50s material from early in Antonio Carlos Jobim's career, particularly as none of it had been released outside of Brazil prior to this U.K. compilation. However, it might not be what some listeners expect of Jobim, even considering how early it was done. The bossa nova that he'd help pioneer is more ...

The Lyric featuring Stacey Kent (2006) more music like this

by Jim Tomlinson/Stacey Kent

Jim Tomlinson originally intended to make this outing an instrumental CD, but when he had the opportunity to work with his wife, vocalist Stacey Kent, he quickly adapted most of the session to include her. The English tenor saxophonist chose time-tested material from standards and a few bossa novas, playing all of them with a lyrical sound ...

The Jobim Songbook (2006) more music like this

by Mauche Adnet

The lack of liner notes doesn't give much clue as to how long Maucha Adnet has been active professionally as a vocalist, though a quote from Antonio Carlos Jobim indicates that she toured with the late, legendary composer. Her deep, soulful voice is very appealing, similar to that of Leny Andrade. Accompanied by a mix of Brazilian and American ...

Gilberto and Jobim (1960) more music like this

by João Gilberto

The back cover of this Capitol LP claims "Here's the album that started it all," and to an extent that is true. A year before Stan Getz first met up with Charlie Byrd to launch bossa nova in the United States, Joao Gilberto (with backing by an orchestra led by Antonio Carlos Jobim) recorded a dozen bossa nova performances, including "One Note ...
