Girl from Ipanema: The Antonio Carlos Jobim Songbook (1962) more music like this

by Antonio Carlos Jobim

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, Joćo Gilberto, and Astrud Gilberto hit "The Girl from ...

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, ...

Brazilian Classics (2003) more music like this

by Eliane Elias

Featuring tracks culled from eight of her albums, beginning fittingly enough with 1989's Eliane Elias Plays Jobim, Blue Note has compiled a strong collection of pianist Eliane Elias' Brazilian jazz cuts on Brazilian Classics. Elias' classically influenced touch is evident here on such standards as Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Chega de Saudade" and "One ...

Getz Plays Jobim: The Girl from Ipanema (2002) more music like this

by Stan Getz

Simply put, here are the most successful 14 cuts covering two years in the collaboration between Stan Getz and Antonio Carlos Jobim, during which both men became accustomed to having hit singles. Unfortunately, only one of them got to ride that horse for the rest of the decade -- in the United States, anyway. Nonetheless, this material marks the ...

Susannah McCorkle spoke Italian, Spanish, German, and Portuguese in addition to English; she had worked as an interpreter before she devoted herself to singing. On her second Concord CD, McCorkle sang ten Brazilian songs plus "Estate," switching between English, Portuguese, and Italian. There is no communication problem as far as conveying her ...

Verve Jazz Masters 53: Bossa Nova (1962) more music like this

by Stan Getz

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 ...

In 1999, Collectables released The Swinger From Rio/The Beat of Brazil, which contained two complete albums -- The Swinger From Rio (1966, originally released on Atlantic) and The Beat of Brazil (1967, originally released on Atlantic) -- by Sergio Mendes on one compact disc.

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 Joćo Gilberto's quintessential bossa nova record, Getz/Gilberto, before threading through his own ...

The Very Best of Sergio Mendes & Brazil 66 (1997) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

Although it's not assembled chronologically, the 48-track, double-disc The Very Best of Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 is a near-definitive collection, featuring all of the group's hits plus a good selection of their album tracks and lesser-known singles. For fans who want a little more than a single-disc collection, this is an ideal purchase, even if ...

Compact Jazz: Stan Getz (1964) more music like this

by Stan Getz

Although editions of Verve's Compact Jazz series can be misguided, they at least offer curious listeners a fairly good budget introduction to some of jazz's biggest figures. This time out, Stan Getz is on tap with many of his biggest sides from the '60s. Erring heavily on the bossa nova end of things, the 12-track set includes his most popular cut ...

Jobim Jazz (2007) more music like this

by Mario Adnet

Although we often think of Antonio Carlos Jobim's bossa nova material as a kind of jazz, it isn't really, although he was familiar with the genre and often used its inflections and moods. With this album, however, Jobim definitely becomes jazzy. Guitarist Mario Adnet set out to do two things -- keep the Brazilian roots of the music faithfully ...

The freedom, confidence, and respect that Charlie Byrd experienced during his remarkable 25-year career at Concord Records is captured on this excellent compilation entitled, The Best of the Concord Years.

Plays Jobim (2002) more music like this

by Charlie Byrd

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 ...

To Go: Stick It in Your Ear (2006) more music like this

by Antonio Carlos Jobim

Though it only contains six songs, To Go, the Antonio Carlos Jobim compilation put out by Verve, is a very good, albeit very, very brief glimpse into the composer and musician's life. The thing is, even nominal fans of Jobim will probably already have the three albums from which these songs were culled (Stan Getz and Joćo Gilberto's 1963 Getz ...

Wave: The Antonio Carlos Jobim Songbook (1962) more music like this

by Various Artists

The sequel to the popular The Girl from Ipanema anthology basically reshuffles the deck, duplicating nine of the earlier CD's songs and adding six new ones, using mostly the same performers with a few additions. The new wrinkle is that the artists perform different tunes, a game that one imagines could be continued indefinitely on future issues. ...

The Swinger from Rio: Favourites (2004) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes

The undisputed master of Brazilian-flavored pop (especially throughout the U.S.) in the '60s was Sergio Mendes, as he threw together Brazilian songs and aesthetics with American and British pieces, jazz ideals, and an original vocal format for his group (dual parallel female vocal lines). This compilation tries to cover the breadth of Mendes' ...

With tracks from seminal artists like Antonio Carlos Jobim, Jorge Ben, Elis Regina and Vinicius de Moraes, Brazil: The Essential Album is actually a fairly decent -- and fun -- collection of some of the country's musical traditions. Of course, there are exclusions (Caetano Veloso, Milton Nascimento, Joćo Bosco, and Beth Carvalho, most notably), ...
