could say that Stan Getz and sensual lyricism of his tenor sax staged some of the most exciting and glorious passages of this remarkable and successful fusion of jazz and bossa-nova, which took place during the first half of the 60 some called jazz-samba. A period that was his moment of greatest glory and success, and Stan Getz knew to be surrounded by some of the leading creators and promoters of this sensual and warm sound of Brazilian origin, as Jobim, Luiz Bonfa and Joao Gilberto, in sessions high voltage and emotional intensity, yet resulted in an unexpected discs delicacy and beauty, like the wonderful Getz & Gilberto, of which we have discussed here, or that other great Jazz Samba Encore! envelopes filled with sinuous melodies, where Getz's sax looked lustfully hover between jumping and placid chords Luiz's guitar Bonfá, and the whispering voice of Maria Toledo woman at the time of Bonfá.
Jazz Samba Encore! was recorded in New York in February 1963, and is an essential step beyond its merger with Getz bossa, after the success that was a year before Jazz Samba, the disk began to popularize the bossa, and which together with the guitarist Charlie Bird recorded songs by Jobim, Bonfa and Vinicious de Moraes, among other renowned Brazilian composers. Jazz Samba Encore! was not the first album Getz recorded with Brazilian musicians, because in August of 62, had already recorded another of our favorite albums bossa and samba jazz, Big Band Bossa-Nova with Brazilian composer and arranger Gary McFarland, but Jazz Samba Encore! itself marked the first real approach Getz and the bossa more appealing to the minimalist bossa, melancholy tones of beautiful, carefree attitude, but happy, sensual and delicate voices whispering.
And the truth is I could not be otherwise, if who accompanied him on guitar and composed most of the songs Luiz Bonfá himself with the help point on the piano and arrangements, that other incunabula bossa, which is the essential Antonio Carlos Jobim. And if all this we add the melodious languid voice of Maria Toledo, with production kingpin Verve, Creed Taylor, and we have the equipment perefecto for a classic bossa you should not miss.
While it is true that the media coverage failed to reach the famous later Getz / Gilberto with Joao and Astrud Gilberto, Jazz Samba Encore! is another marvelous, instrumental gems that left us in a joyful and exciting placid melancholy as the excellent Sambalero, Morro Nao Tem Vez O or Ebony samba, beautiful vocal passages, by Maria Toledo, a wrenching sadness such as the beautiful Folly, and more vital as Saudade Ven Correndo , in addition to dance the samba exercises are about as So Danco Samba and Getz Um Abraço no. Small wonder, some forgotten, that you can hear the disc Verve page and set the tone of the resounding international success, a month later they recorded Getz and Joao Gilberto.
