Description
The complete recordings - newly remastered - limited edition pressing on 180g vinyl.
The only existing audio recording of the legendary 1962 concerts featuring Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes, Joao Gilberto, and Os Cariocas together.
In August 1962, Brazilian producer Aloysio de Oliveira created a landmark moment in music history by uniting the founding trio of the Bossa Nova genre on stage for the very first time. Over the course of six weeks, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes, and Joao Gilberto - joined by the vocal group Os Cariocas, with Milton Banana on drums and Otavio Bailly on double bass - captivated audiences at the Au Bon Gourmet nightclub in Copacabana, one of Rio de Janeiro's most iconic music neighbourhoods.
For decades, only those who attended these performances had the privilege of witnessing this unique collaboration, but that privilege was later shared through the release of this album, which features recordings from two of those evenings at the Au Bon Gourmet, unearthed and now carefully remastered in a new edition for all to enjoy.
