Joao Gilberto - Joao Gilberto (1961)

Hello, Good Evening! I want to start as solid as possible today. I'm leaving home to watch Paulinho Trumpete tribute to Durval Ferreira at Drink, getting back later at night. Today and the forthcoming concerts at Festival da Bossa Nova will be really great, you should not miss.

This is Joao Gilberto - Joao Gilberto (1961), for Odeon, featuring Antonio Carlos Jobim and Walter Wanderley e Seu Conjunto. You will think and I know that Joao Gilberto - The Legendary -- released a week ago -- has this album included. However, when I took this original vinyl edition for a spin, I heard a superior sound quality and Joao Gilberto really deserves a nice quality ripping. Thanks once again to Luiz Harding for sending this album in a perfect condition. Maestro Antonio Carlos Jobim (arrangements, piano) and Walter Wanderley participation is highlighted with track list.
