Joao Gilberto

bio

i grabbed some sort of compilation of his stuff from the
library the other day, and it sounds quite awesome... he's
got a really airy-yet-somehow-earthy voice, and his lyrical
flow is more inventive than that of most rappers... and the
band sounds pretty nice too... interesting minimal
arrangements that at times remind me of what i like about
2-step D'n'B... as odd as that might sound...

anyhow, i was just wondering if anyone here can recommend me
a proper album of his, as opposed to a hits compilation...

what do you think of this guy?

hopeful bump for the sane people who frequent this place
during regular non-fat-calling hours...

I'll sure as hell check this guy out.

It's too bad not as many people are interested.

Well there's this Getz/Gilberto album, it's supposed to be
some kind of classic. It's pretty good I guess.

I've got the album with Stan Getz and Antonio Carlos Jobim
which is excellent

"The Legendary Joao Gilberto" is probably the most amazing
album ever made. Its like his first 3 albums put together
but its really really hard to find. ive seen a few people
selling the original vinyl on ebay but the bidding usually
ends at around $150 or so.
This guy inspired me to go buy a nylon string guitar and
learn the bossa nova methods he plays. I have this album on
soulseek if you want it. my name there is "the wok"
