Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd - One Note Samba

[terrryc]

When the mood is right on one of my gigs, I announce that the next selection will be "The One Note Samba". Then I'll fart as loudly as I can. Don't try this one one of YOUR gigs.....

[macosxuser88]

drummer was having to deal with the guitarist changing the rhythm at 3:47 , poor guy,we drummers always take the beating....

[danieljones013]

isnt this a bossa?

[dracolich345]

This was Great! Thanks for sharing! :D

[stecsworld]

Hahaha for 3 straight days I have been listening to Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd trying to find a sample for one of my beats ever since J dilla found "Runnin."

[PercivalFromWales]

I love to play this track in my car on my way to work. Rather relaxing, even in case of a huge traffic jam. Any stress simply fades away when hearing this... For a long time I had simply never known that jazz could be this relaxing, as opposed to the aptly so named track "tensions" from Charles Mingus (which I love also, by the way). Jazz has got to be the most versatile style of music. It can blend with any kind of music you can think of...

[danieljones013]

@PercivalFromWales 1000% true

una passeggiata tra le nuvole! :-)

Thanks for posting - I owned tis album for many years.... practically wore it out... finally lost it... the lyrical style of gets was perfect for this. And charlie Byrd is forgotten treasure. he never toured so he was mostly famous in Washington DC area. I loved all his work.

What a pleasure it is to hear this again.- made my day

[Soula27]

Fantastic! Make that 458 likes.

The beautiful thing about this track--and this album in general--besides Charlie and Stan's magical chemistry--is how in this generally "cool" atmosphere Stan can still project such emotional intensity(2:11,for example). This album still stands as the most successful "Jazz meets Bossa"album ever made,both artistically and commercially. Also worth checking out is Charlie Rouse's "Bossa Nova Bacchanal"(Blue Note)

[quetsanuwa]

nunca pensé que me podía emocionar tanto con una canción.. realmente amo el bossa nova !!

[GourmetPIMP]

Charlie Byrd's guitar solo in this song is my all-time favorite piece of guitar work in any genre. Just SICK

[GourmetPIMP]

Charlie Byrd's guitar solo in this song is the sickest thing I've ever heard. I normally like indie rock but this song blows me away every time.

Pure gem with no dislikes!

thanks a lot ... you are open my whole world and inspiration

[dancingmikki]

I used to see Charlie Byrd at The Showboat Lounge in DC in the early 60's on a very regular basis. I remember when he returned from a State Department tour in Brazil and he had us listen to this new music called Bossa Nova. We were hypnotized. He might have been the first American Jazz musician to record a Bossa Nova tune, O Pato (The Duck).

On Jazz Samba, people should be clear it was Charlie's project, and he brought Stan Getz in on it. And what an inspired coupling it was -- still is!

[jay1beaux]

I had this album when I was a young sax player in the 60s-----it's still great

[MrJBanks12]

This arrangement takes me to a wonderful time and place. College life in America.. Music appreciation and chums studying around the turntable listening to The Bird and Stan Getz in Olympia. Ah-Yeah

[Abyss1021]

Getz was so good. Miss the man and his unique style. Oh, well.....

[friendlytec]

Now this is Jazz Samba at its best.

Not difficult to play on a keyboard either (Professional Pianist in Brazil)

[KZFisher]

THANK YOU Dexterecus for sharing Jazz . . . honest to goodness JAZZ !!! as it was meant to sound - NOT pretentious electro generated over saxed, over played so called "smooth jazz" . . . BUT listen up ya all . . . because this is real - Smooth (with a capital "S") - JAZZ.

[MendoBud640]

Nice, thanks for sharing.

[venville]

This album with its distinctive cover was owned by my brother Peter when it first came out in the l960's. Superb sounding even now. Thanks for putting some of the music from the album on Youtube. Desafinado is beautiful.

[chucku00]

FIP 17 heures 25, des bouchons sur le périphérique à la porte d'Orléans... Nostalgie !

Long life Antonio Carlos Jobim, a walking godness

[lonoesunmonstruo5]

Incredible song, incredible Getz, lovely Bossa Nova music.



[realself1]

That Charlie Byrd has a touch on guitar. Very musical.

[MarioPetrinovich]

Beautiful.

[DesPondent100]

Thanks for posting. Wonderful or what.

[colton422]

that's my drum teacher, Buddy Deppenschmidt on drums (with Bill Reichenbach also on drums). one of my all-time favorite albums. so smooth. mellow.

[MultiCARTOON]

what year is the music of samba de uma nota so

[Sublemon7]

samba music is soo relaxed i love it! and stan and charlie always pick the best notes possible!

[leleco3612]

this is great! and it's different, but at the same time manages to maintain the bossa nova feel of the original!

[IsobelSturgeon]

Too bad we don't do cultural goodwill tours anymore. Imagine...

[phatjuice4]

i loveeeeee this song..always slept with it and had wonderful dreams!!!

[WildOrchid5]

This is such a classic! Love it! Thanks so much for sharing with all of us! XOXO

[matzomaniac]

[nemesis700]

[milaeighteen]

Back in '98 I used to listen to a track called "Jazz Samba Retro" by a band called Dupont that used this. Many happy memories!

[mcancer69]

[capgulka]

Tellement beau....

[RicoRicanNYC]

5 stars for the smooth awesomness!!

[furryfeet]

mmmm so sweet !

[afrosheen6]

MY GOD!!! This is like butter, truly smooth...

[TheConqueror09]

the pharcyde ''runnin'' sample - 3:38 ... i think... if not it sounds just like it!

[Potrod]

@TheConqueror09 Very close. Pharcyde's "Runnin" actually samples Saudade Vem Correndo (also by Stan Getz). (check it out at 2:05 and 2:47).

[MellaMique]

@Potrod thats funny cuz i kno the pharcyde runnin sample an i stil thought it sounded so similar haha dope

[BigBagOfPus]

Jobim was a god.

[da19lila38]

I'd like to add that it was Tom Jobim who wrote this marvelous samba. It might be interesting for you to watch the video:

Gerry Mulligan and Antonio Carlos Jobim - Full Video.

A very nice version of Getz&Byrd really!

[heapsfamous]

I just picked this record up, love it, thanks for posting

[oaybar007]

Brilliant...these tunes are way before my time but I found a love for Bossa Nova from a young age.

Charlie Byrd was a big fixture in my home state and played even into old age. Hearing his music and learning about how Brazil influenced him so deeply makes me appreciate this tune even more.

I sure hope that my generation keeps this stuff alive.

[chalone2]

wow! am I the only one who still has this? and yes, I bought it in the 60's.. stiil a fave. thanks for this one.

[nobberING]

i still have it. ;0) ,i still love it ,i still listen to it and still share it with others.

[birdonaline]

Thanks very much for this, I used to own this album in the 60's. Its still really cool . Please, please can you put some more tracks from it on here?

[Dexterecus]

If you want I could upload the album. But right now I'm pretty busy. Maybe in a week or two.

[bigmarty56]

I'm dying to hear Samba dees days!

Daryll B. Moredecum

[RailroadBill76]

@birdonaline ...it's been reissued on cd....

[recovering16]

@birdonaline Me too, "bird". We had this album in the Sixties and played it all the time - especially this one and Desafinado.

[zthetha]

Likewise - many thanks for posting this - around half a century since I last heard it - sounds just as fresh but then Stan and Chas still were.

[mediamanny53]

Truly a beautiful classic masterpiece.....Stan my all time favorite 1 Grazie

[midlander07]

This is fantastic - I used to have this LP.

Thanks for posting.
