#0041: Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto - Getz-Gilberto [***]

With a Spanish dude singing over the top it doesn't sound as sickly sweet and cheesy as the previous Stan Getz album on the list.  I think the version of Girl From Ipanema on this is pretty famous.  I've certainly heard it many times.

The latin rhythms in this are soft and understated and Getz sounds like a different player.  Maybe it was the production on the last offering that was the problem.  This is lovely.  I'd shag to it.
