    Jazz Samba!
    Celebrating two classic groundbreaking 1960s bossa nova albums!!

    Featuring a quintet of top-flight UK musicians (with CVs to match!), Jazz Samba! spotlights Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd’s groundbreaking 1962 recording, plus 1964's Grammy-winning Getz/Gilberto.

    The first-ever fully fledged bossa nova album recorded by American jazz musicians, Jazz Samba is a classic LP from the era and features in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die!

    A huge commercial success, Jazz Samba topped the LP chart

    Notable tunes included the hit Desafinado and One Note Samba, both composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim.

     

    Getz/Gilberto also featured Brazilian guitarist João Gilberto, and pianist/composer Antônio Carlos Jobim, who also wrote many of the tracks.
