Orgulho de ser Brasileiro. O Melhor dos Melhores.....

[DANILORAFAELSR2]

Meu Deus,como brasileiro me sinto envergonhado ao ver somente comentários em inglês...Os americanos mostram que realmente entendem de música ao admirar esse fantástico interprete...Inigualável,genia­l e extremamente original...João Gilberto é uma lenda viva brasileira.

I first heard this as a small child when my father constantly played this album. Oh, and what an album it is. One of the greats. Jobim, Getz and the Gilbertos! How could it not be great?  Corcovado, The Girl From Ipanema, So Danco Samba,.... Oh how lovely.

What an awful edit at 2:55 , but every record that I have heard of this rendition, has this flaw..

I FUCKING love this whole album and everything to do with Antonio, Joao, Astrud, and Stan. they are so great. I wish I could find a video of Stan performing this live. There is nothing on YouTube. Not anyone performing it (well) live. No one follows the original song. How annoying. I want to hear someone play the last few notes.
