Justifiably
overshadowed by the peerless Getz/Gilberto album (which featured Girl
From Ipanema) from a year before, Getz/Gilberto #2 still holds its
own with an appealing selection of fine jazz and bossa nova cuts. Unlike
the first albums seamless collaboration by Getz, João Gilberto,
Astrud Gilberto and Antonio Carlos Jobim, here Getz and João Gilberto
turn in separate sets recorded live at Carnegie Hall in October of 1964.
Backed by a stellar quartet comprised of vibraphonist Gary Burton, bassist
Gene Cherico, and drummer Joe Hunt, Getz turns in a sparkling performance
on the seldom covered ballad Tonight I Shall Sleep With a Smile on
my Face, while stretching out nicely on his original blues swinger
Stans Blues. With the support of bassist Keter Betts and
drummer Helcio Milito, Gilberto displays his subtle vocal and guitar talents
on a set of bossa nova favorites, including his own Bim Bom
and Jobims Meditation. The CD reissue also includes a
couple of additional live vocal cuts featuring Astrud Gilberto, including...
versions of Corcovado and Girl From Ipanema from
the Carnegie Hall concert, and inspired readings of It Might As Well
Be Spring and Only Trust Your Heart from the club recording
Getz Au Go Go.
