Product Details

Recorded in a Washington, D.C. church in February 1962, Jazz Samba hit number one on the Billboard pop charts the following year, a rare feat for an instrumental jazz record. Getz's breathy tenor and Byrd's nylon-string guitar introduced millions of American listeners to a sound that would reshape popular music through the decade, opening the door for "The Girl from Ipanema" and everything that followed.

When Charlie Byrd toured South America in 1961, bossa nova - a melding of Brazilian samba rhythms with the harmonic structures and the cool sound of West Coast jazz - was booming. He brought back records for Stan Getz to hear, and they planned a session. The result was Jazz Samba, the first album of bossa nova by jazz artists and the one that created the bossa nova wave. Verve Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered on 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold jacket.
