This is a particularly attractive CD series

https://www.discogs.com/label/813145-Bossa-Nova-2001

They have excellent mini gatefold cases, and the sound quality is great, of course. Japanese style at its best.

The Jobim's are great, and "Wave" has its correct red color. (Some CD issues of that are green, which looks awful.) I like the "Big Band Bossa Nova" album (Stan Getz, arranged by Gary McFarland), and McFarland's "Soft Samba" is nice. "Samba Blim", by Tamba 4, is worth a listen.

Too bad they included so much Astrud. Can't sing decently and is out-of-tune. I heard that Gil Evans was not pleased with her; he was wasted on her, definitely.

Check out this series.
