Ultimate audiophile reissue and some of the best music ever played, it really doesn't get much better than this! It's a mandatory album for any record collection. Remastered by George Marino from the Original Master Tapes at Sterling Sound and pressed to 45rpm 180gr vinyl at QRP this reissue will have you smiling all the way to the last groove as Getz, Gilberto, Astrud and Jobim do their magic.

 

As with all the Verve reissues mastered by George Marino for Analogue Productions, the sound is quite impressive, with the perfect balance of resolution, clarity, life like dynamics and tonal accuracy. This reissue program was a true labor of love for the late George Marino and it shows on every single second of the music you'll hear from this treasure of sonic beauty. Very highly recommended, some of the best music you'll ever hear, with audiophile mastering to the highest technical standards.

One of the biggest-selling jazz albums of all time, not to mention bossa nova's finest moment, Getz/Gilberto trumped Jazz Samba by bringing two of bossa nova's greatest innovators - guitarist/singer João Gilberto and composer/pianist Antonio Carlos Jobim - to New York to record with Stan Getz. The results were magic. Ever since Jazz Samba, the jazz marketplace had been flooded with bossa nova albums, and the overexposure was beginning to make the music seem like a fad.

 

Getz/Gilberto made bossa nova a permanent part of the jazz landscape not just with its unassailable beauty, but with one of the biggest smash hit singles in jazz history - "The Girl From Ipanema," a Jobim classic sung by João's wife, Astrud Gilberto, who had never performed outside of her own home prior to the recording session. Beyond that, most of the Jobim songs recorded here also became standards of the genre - "Corcovado" (which featured another vocal by Astrud), "So Danço Samba," "O Grande Amor," a new version of "Desafinado."

 

With such uniformly brilliant material, it's no wonder the album was such a success but, even apart from that, the musicians all play with an effortless grace that's arguably the fullest expression of bossa nova's dreamy romanticism ever brought to American listeners. Getz himself has never been more lyrical, and Gilberto and Jobim pull off the harmonic and rhythmic sophistication of the songs with a warm, relaxed charm. This music has nearly universal appeal; it's one of those rare jazz records about which the purist elite and the buying public are in total agreement. Beyond essential. - Steve Huey, All Music
