Insensatez Chega de Saudade – Joao Gilberto – LP, Import – Born in Juazeiro, Bahia, Brazil on June 10, 1931 (and 87 years.old at this writing), singer/song writer João Gilberto is a living legend of bossa nova. While Antonio Carlos Jobim set the standard for the creation of bossa nova in the mid-’50s (with songs like „The Girl from Ipanema“ and „Desafinado“), it was Gilberto who brilliantly reimagined (and, arguably, defined) the genre. The first bossa nova song, titled „Bim-Bom“, was written as Gilberto watched passing laundresses on the banks of the São Francisco River balance loads of clothes on their heads. In 1956 he went to Rio de Janeiro and struck up old acquaintances, most significantly Antonio Carlos Jobim, who was by then working as a composer, producer and arranger with Odeon Records. Jobim was impressed with Gilberto’s new style of guitar playing, and set about finding a suitable song to pitch the style to Odeon management. In 1959 Gilberto presented his first LP, Chega de Saudade. The title song turned into a hit, launching Gilberto’s career and the bossa nova craze. Besides a number of Jobim compositions, the album featured older sambas and popular songs from the 1940s and 1950s, all performed in Gilberto’s distinctive style. This album was followed by two more in 1960 and 1961, by which time the singer featured new songs by a younger generation of performer/composers such as Carlos Lyra and Roberto Menescal. By 1962, bossa nova had been embraced by North American jazz musicians such as Herbie Mann, Charlie Byrd, and Stan Getz, who invited Gilberto and Jobim to collaborate on what became one of the best-selling jazz albums of all time, Getz/Gilberto. Chega de Saudade was issued in the United States as The Warm World of João Gilberto.© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.

Satchmo and The Duke were each in the midst of revitalized careers that were soaring higher than the fame of their youth when they joined forces to record „The Great Summit“ in 1961. Each already was an unparalleled legend for nearly 30 years, and it is surprising they hadn’t recorded more together. But then their styles were so different. Ellington was the sheer embodiment of sophistication and elegance in jazz. Armstrong was the earthy pulse of the people at large. Each had a ceaseless creativity and vitality that could only be matched by the other. All stylistic differences aside, few musicians on earth have had their sense of swingin‘ rhythm. This reissue remains a musical feast for the ears as Louie puts his own take on the music as Duke performs his biggest hits! You’ll be blown away on „Mood Indigo;“ „Black and Tan Fantasy;“ „The Mooch;“ „In a Mellow Tone;“ „It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got that Swing)“ and more. It couldn’t possibly sound better than it does on this 180-gram audiophile vinyl.© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
