Description
180-GRAM VIRGIN VINYL - THE COMPLETE ALBUM + 4 BONUS TRACKS. The Girl from Ipanema was the first album by Antonio Carlos Jobim and features a dozen instrumentals arranged by Claus Ogerman, whose work would mark the beginning of a lifelong musical relationship with Jobim.
Of the album's twelve songs, almost all are jazz standards. The opening track The Girl from Ipanema is believed to be the second most recorded song in history, the first being The Beatles' Yesterday.
The album was inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001. In 2007, Rolling Stone Brasil ranked it number 58 in "The 100 greatest Brazilian music records".
"If the bossa nova movement had produced nothing more than this album, it would have been more than justified. I cannot recommend this album highly enough and only wish there were more stars to award it." - DOWN BEAT (Pete Welding), 5 STARS.
