Braziliance!:
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
upon its release and signalled the beginning of the bossa nova craze in America.
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.
Come and soak up the laidback vibe!
