Recorded in 1964 at the great Café Au Go Go in Greenwich Village - just months after Astrud Gilberto’s 'Girl from Ipanema' became a Top Five pop hit - this live album from the Stan Getz Quartet in live euphony with the Brazilian vocal phenom marks a pivotal moment in both musicians’ careers. Steering away from her original, traditional Brazilian bossa nova, Gilberto embraced a North American jazz influence here. A young Gary Burton is heard on vibraphone, with Kenny Burrell also on guitar, Gene Cherico on bass, and Joe Hunt on drums - some further percussive substitutions by Helcio Milito (drums) and Chuck Israels (bass) appear in later sets. At the time, Astrud was not a professional singer, but she was asked to sing with Getz because her spouse, fellow bossa nova chanteur João Gilberto, was reluctant to sing in English.
