Stan Getz, Gary Mcfarland's Orchestra: Big Band Bossa Nova LP

Looking for something irresistibly elegant and fluid for your vinyl shelf? Big Band Bossa Nova is a classic album by jazz legend and saxophonist Stan Getz, released in 1962, riding the crest of the bossa nova craze that was sweeping the US at the time. The album reached number 13 on the Billboard album chart, and it sits between two iconic milestones in Getz's output (Jazz Samba and Getz/Gilberto).
Gary McFarland's large and cinematic orchestral arrangements give the album an exceptionally deep, expansive and luxurious sound, centered around Getz's delicate, cool tenor saxophone. The album also features pianist Hank Jones and Jim Hall, who plays the role of Charlie Byrd on acoustic guitar. The album includes wonderful takes on Brazilian classics such as Manhã de Carnaval, Chega de Saudade and Samba de Uma Nota Só.
This vinyl reissue brings out exactly the analog warmth and dynamism that such a rich bossa nova recording requires to flourish.
