After hearing my initial introduction of her vocals in " The Girl from Ipenema" , I became instantly infatuated with her singing. After hearing several more songs , I became instantly hooked. Labeled as the " Queen of Bossa Nova" , Gilberto Astrud transcends musical genres and captivates audiences from around the world. Astrud has influenced such reknowned artist as Sade and Sinead O'Connor. Not only is she an artist that has a captivating style that's so simplistically unforgettable....she has compiled a library of music that will influence musical generations in the future. This album is worth having in part just because of the Joao and Jobim tunes on it; I'd say that namely the aforementioned "Girl From Ipanema," "Agua De Beber" " So Nice" are the best Bossa Standards on this album. .... . I will say that "Berimbau" is kind of a fascinating and catchy little tune. Astrud Gilberto - - LET GO (CANTO DE OSSANHA) the story of In Between Days #1 Giermo: Lost and Found by HipChick Comics. Music by Astrud Gilberto Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz: THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA - 1964 Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz: THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA Astrud Gilberto Beach Samba Astrud Gilberto - AGUA DE BEBER I love the simplicity of this song. No need for back up dancers or singers. She alone on the stage with her great voice is more than enough. .but also consider the male back up vocalist, piano, percussionist the stand up bass. Everything comes together and makes beautiful music..
