41. Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto - Getz/Gilberto

Release Date: 1963
Label: Verve

The second album from Stan Getz, and this time he's with Joao Gilberto. I enjoyed the first offering and this was even better, because there were vocals (even if they were in Portugese). There's not much to say about the album other than the fact it was a welcome relief after the dross that was James Brown.
