Today I got out my CD of "Stan Getz & Antonio Carlos Jobim : Their Greatest Hits" which was put out by Verve . Bossa Nova is a Brazilian style of Jazz that loosely translated means "new bump" or "new wrinkle". Antonion Carlos Jobim was one of its founders. Along with Joao Gilberto and singer Astrud Gilberto they laid down a mellow Lain-flavored sound that grabs you like a beautiful woman bent on pleasure. Classics like "The Girl From Ipanema"and "Desafinado" highlight twelve great tunes. If you want to feel good get this CD.
