  • In 1962 (Trio) Pim Jacobs (piano), Wim Overgaauw (guitar) and Ruud Jacobs (double bass), invited Brazilian singer Astrud Gilberto and drummer Dom Um Romão and Dutch tenor saxophone player Ruud Brink, for a musical TV Show called "Dzjes Zien". Which dedicaded a program to Bossa Nova.
    I wasn't even born yet, but for shure this TV Show on Bossa Nova conquered a lot of hearts of its listners.
    Years later as a kid, for the first time I "consciously" heard GETZ/GILBERTO playing on my fathers record player. I fell in love with this music . . . and Astrud. Her voice. Her accent. And above all this amazing guitar by João Gilberto.
    Never changed! Never parted me.
    E do danado do samba, nunca me separei! (from Samba da minha terra)
    And the darn samba, never separated from me!
    Songs that where played on the show:
    Meditation 2:44
    It might as well be spring 5:25
    The telephone Song 8:46
    Only trust your heart 10:18
    Corcovado/Quiet nights of quiet stars 12:20
    The girl from Ipanema 14:19

      The success of Gilberto's vocal work on the song "The Girl from Ipanema" quickly turned her into a jazz star, and soon she started recording solo. She started as an interpreter of Brazilian bossa nova and American jazz standards, but started recording her own compositions in the 1970s.
      In 1992, Astrud received the "Latin Jazz USA Award for Lifetime Achievement" for her outstanding contribution to Latin jazz music.

    Pim Jacobs (1934-1996) was a jazz pianist and TV-host from the Netherlands. With shows like this he brought Jazz to the people. In 1962 he had just married the dutch jazz singer Rita Reys (1924-2013), who would rise to international fame in the 1960's and 1970's. I owe him a lot, because he introduced me to jazz when I was still in my teens.

      Hello, maybe you can clear up an issue I commented on above:
      Superb recording (Phillips equipment?) but I'm not sure if the date is right. The stories relate how she was a last minute choice in-studio to do the English version of Ipanema ~ in 1964.
      [Here she is not with Getz, though he is mention by Pim. (Later Getz was reported to have been dismissive but also abusive.)]

    • @fromthesidelines
      @fromthesidelines Před rokem

      This was recorded in July 1965 (and telecast the following October), when Astrud was in Holland for one day, during which she appeared on Pim's weekly program {"SEE JAZZ"}, and was in the U.S. the next day.

    I’m certain Astrud is singing a heavenly Bosa Nova. Her vocalization is soooo smooth and flowing - it takes me to a peaceful, tranquil, and completely relaxed place with infinite calm; like a soft, cool breeze. As with any truly talented artist, she sings effortlessly and with such ease. Add to that her natural beauty and innocent nature- I was in love! God bless you Astrud. You soothe my soul !
