Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd – Jazz Samba (Verve Acoustic Sounds Vinyl)

This ground-breaking record produced by Creed Taylor came about when Charlie Byrd introduced Stan Getz to the Brazilian rhythm style, having brought the first bossa nova records over to America from Brazil. Recorded in a church in Washington, during February 1962. The subtle improvisation of Getz, is perfectly matched by Byrd’s finger style on classical guitar along with the backing of experienced personnel.
