One of my essential albums is Getz/Gilberto. It’s an classic and it never lets me down. It’s so smooth I’d bet it could probably fit in my ear sideways. Life is tough, you know that. We are judged by what we create but time will always move as fast as we do. That’s a hard thing [...]

Stan Getz & Luiz Bonfa – O Morro Nao Tem Vaz This is the first time that I’ve posted a tune whilst at work, and it feels good to know I’m getting paid for the privilege. In my last entry I promised not to post any more tunes with dubious sax solos. Instead of playing it safe and opting for a tune with no sax whatsoever, I’ve opted for plenty of sax.
