Album Description
Available in:
Jazz Samba is a bossa nova album by Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd released by Verve Records in 1962. Jazz Samba signaled the beginning of the bossa nova craze in America. Stan Getz was the featured soloist and the tracks were arranged by Charlie Byrd, who had first heard bossa nova during a tour of Brazil in 1961.

Getz and Byrd were accompanied by two bassists: Keter Betts and Joe Byrd, Charlie's Byrd's brother who also played guitar. They were joined by two drummers: Buddy Deppenschmidt and Bill Reichenbach. The album was recorded at All Souls Unitarian Church in Washington, D.C. on February 13, 1962 and released in April of that year.

Antonio Carlos Jobim wrote two songs: "Desafinado" (Out of Tune) and "Samba de Uma Nota Só" (One Note Samba). His songs were released as singles in the U.S. and Europe. Charlie Byrd wrote one song, and the rest were by Brazilian composers.

Stan Getz won the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Performance of 1963 for "Desafinado", and went on to make many other bossa nova recordings, notably with João Gilberto and Astrud Gilberto and the popular song "The Girl from Ipanema".

Robert Dimery included Jazz Samba in his book, 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
