who likes Bossanova

It is like a blend of Jazz and salsa. I love this music. It calms me down and brings me to hot classy beaches with a martini in my hand.
Bossanova was very popular in the sixties with the jetsetters.

 

Im not too knowledgable on it, but i love the song 'desifindo'. (the one sang in portugeuse, the English version sucks)

 

Oooooo, I do! Love Bebel Gilberto. Her stepmother sang "Girl from Ipanema". This kind of music puts me in the right place.

 

I love Bossanova.
it's just a shame that folks keep blamining it for all sorts of things

 

one of my favorite forms...

 

Yeah..

"those young hoodlums with their vodka, sex and, bossanova!"

Yes, bossanova is some good listening. I can't listen to it all of the time, but it's great for when the mood hits.

 

Try Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd's "Jazz Samba"
also Getz/Gilberto

That's a good start.

 

I like all the artist mentioned. One of my favorites are Sergio Mendes Brazil'66, with vocalist Lani Hall. I saw Sergio's new band this year in Cleveland. He still rocks!

 

Anything from Joao Gilberto to Bebel Gilberto

 

Bocks likes bossa nova...but prefers samba.
