Astrud s father was german, her mother was brazilian. Astrud is the mother of two boys only.Today she lives in Philadelphia but comes to Brazil every once in a while to see her two sisters and friends. Bebel Gilberto ( daughter of Joao Gilberto and Miucha - Chico Buarque s sister) actually was raised in Chico Buarque s father s house with a zillion artists coming in and out and 24 hour music playing. it was a fantastic time! ...miss it. thanks for the upload.
beautiful...

I have loved Astrud Gilberto longer than most of you reading this have been alive.
She began her career as a housewife and was accidentally overheard singing in the kitchen. The producer of "The Girl From Ipanema" heard her over the phone and immediately recorded her for the first time on my favorite Bossa Nova album
of all time, Getz and Gilberto. Do yourself a favor and buy it :)

Also on her 1965 album 'the Shadow of your Smile.' Added this to my series of music playlists for each of the last 100 years, an escape to any past year . . .
btw - it was actually Brazil that sent this music, bossa nova, out into the world. Brazil was integral in it's influence on pop music of the 60s & 70s - see my playlist called ' Bossa Nova - the Magic Beat' to see just HOW much, & be amazed ! ! !
