LP (Item 10010) Verve, 1966 -- Condition: Very Good+
An album that not only broke the bossa big in the US -- but a set that also really helped transform the sound of the organ in jazz! Not only is the record a key meeting of bossa rhythms and jazz organ -- transplanted hugely to the US after a big initial Wanderley run in 60s Brazil -- but the set also features some of the cleanest organ lines to ever hit these shores -- a big difference from the heavier flutter that some of the US organists were using a few years before, and a sharp shift towards cleaner keyboard sounds for the rest of the decade. Instrumentation's nice and spare -- mostly bass and percussion, plus a bi tof flute and guitar -- and titles include the massive hit "Summer Samba", plus "Rain", "Beach Samba", "Song Of The Jet", "Cried, Cried", and "Girl From Ipanema". (Cover has some discoloration from aging on back & a cutout hole.) © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | ||||||
