The record
The record that brought bossa nova to American ears without dulling its intimacy -- Getz's breathy tenor curling around Jobim's melodies while Gilberto's hushed guitar and Astrud's untrained, unforgettable vocal keep things whisper-close. A quiet landmark that outsold jazz's own expectations of itself.
