Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd —
Jazz Samba ... LP Verve, 1962. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
One of those records that no home should be without – not only a pivotal album in the growth of bossa nova in the 60s – but a set that also really helped set the career of tenorist Stan Getz on fire! The real credit here might almost go to guitarist Charlie Byrd – as Byrd was a ... (Jazz, Brazil) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Verve, 1984. Near Mint- 5LP Box Set ... $59.99
A pretty darn great set that captures bits from all of Stan Getz's bossa nova recordings for Verve!

Astrud Gilberto —
I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do ... LP Verve, 1970. Near Mint- ... $24.99
One of the darkest albums ever recorded by Astrud Gilberto – her 60s last session for Verve Records, and a batch of beautifully moody tunes throughout! Arrangements are by Albert Gorgoni, who'd handled Gilberto's previous September 69 album – but the style here is a bit mellower, a bit ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mexican pressing with deep groove. Cover is nice, save for a bit of waviness from mositure.)
Astrud Gilberto —
Look To The Rainbow ... LP Verve, 1965. Very Good ... $16.99
One of the moodiest Verve albums from Astrud Gilberto – a set that has some surprising arrangements by Gil Evans – working here on one of his few 60s dates with a singer! Astrud's blue-tinged vocals work perfectly with Evans' backdrops – and Al Cohn also takes over the helm on ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(MGM pressing with Van Gelder stamp.)
Soundway (UK), Early 80s. New Copy (reissue)... $28.99
A rare Brazilian album from the early 80s, but one that's quite different than you might expect – as these guys have a clear love of keyboards that resonate with some of the bigger electro pop acts of the UK and European scene of the time! The group's really just a duo – Billy Jaguar ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Reprise, Early 60s. Very Good- ... $7.99
One of the grooviest albums ever made by this great jazz vocal group – and a record that's darn impossible to find on wax! The Hi Lo's here hit the bossa craze of the 60's, and they turn their vocal harmonies to a Brazilian groove, in sort of a roundabout recognition of the way that their ...

Polydor/Polysom (Brazil), 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99
Fantastic work by this underdiscovered Brazilian talent! Hyldon was part of the 70s Brazilian soul and funk generation that included Tim Maia, Cassiano, and Toni Tornado – but he'd also absorbed a lot of the singer/songwriter influences of Caetano Veloso, who's laidback mid 70s style will ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Verve (Japan), 2013. New Copy (pic cover)... $19.99
A beautiful tribute to the legendary Getz/Gilberto album from the 60s – served up here as a special project from Japan, dedicated to the 50th Anniversary of the record! Guitarist Goro Ito put the set together – taking the place of Joao Gilberto on that instrument – and the album ... (Jazz, Brazil) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Limited release for Japan's Record Day 2018!)
CID/Polysom (Brazil), 1974. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99
Incredible stuff – the kind of obscure Brazilian 70s album that first got us into the music in the first place, and which keeps us digging through the racks for more and more over the years! The set is the first album ever recorded by the team of Jaime Alem and Nair De Candia – both of ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Battle, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $33.99
A very nice album of bossa instrumentals, released in the US under the obscure name of "Joao & His Bossa Kings". Joao is listed on the label as Joao Meirelles – also known as JT Meirelles on his more famous Brazilian recordings – and we wonder if Battle gave him the name ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Antonio Carlos Jobim —
Wave ... LP CTI/A&M, 1967. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $24.99
A stunning mix of talents that brings the heavenly piano and guitar of Antonio Carlos Jobim into play with the lush, but light arrangements of Claus Ogerman – a swirling mix of post-bossa loveliness that redefines Jobim's sound, and opens up new avenues for exploration in sound! The ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(White label promo. Cover has light wear, aging, and an Audition stamp.)
Fontana, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $9.99
One of the greatest soundtracks ever – a record that set a whole new standard for audio representation of a film!

Robson Jorge (180 gram pressing) ... LP CBS/Mad About Records (Portugal), 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $22.99
A classic album of 70s soul from Brazil – put together with a warm sunny finish that seems to unify the best modes of Rio and LA at the time!

Polysom (Brazil), 1981. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99
Great 80s grooves from this cool Brazilian duo – the guitar and vocals of Robson Jorge and a sweet range of keyboards from Lincoln Olivetti – tied together in a style that's got plenty of great electro soul touches! At some level, the album recalls some of the 80s grooves coming from ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Luaka Bop, 2018. New Copy ... $19.99 20.99
We admire the hell out of Kassin, but it's hard to imagine that we'd relax when faced with a new record of his – as we always pay fervent attention to everything he ever does! And this time around, that attention is rewarded even more than usual – as the musician and studio genius ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
