Guitarist Charlie Byrd was invited to travel and play in Brazil during a cultural goodwill tour sponsored by the Kennedy administration in 1961. He was completely enamoured by the music, and when he returned, he headed straight for the recording studio to make the now classic Jazz Samba. Collaborating with Stan Getz on tenor sax and backed by a band that included Gene Byrd (bass, guitar), Keter Betts (bass), and Buddy Deppenschmidt and Bill Reichenbach (drums), Byrd forged a new and brilliant sound. American record companies were to churn out hundreds of watered bossa-pop albums that have since given the style its lounge-addled image, but this album stands as a tribute to the vitality and adaptability of jazz. --Louis Gibson

  • @PercivalFromWales 1000% true

  • isnt this a bossa?

  • This was Great! Thanks for sharing! :D

  • 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."

  • 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...

  • @Dexterecus Hey I don't have nor want a soul. but looooooooooove this song, don't judge someone by it's lack of soul

  • una passeggiata tra le nuvole! :-)

  • @Dexterecus I have the original LP .....no words needs....only listening....
