STAN GETZ & JOAO GILBERTO
Getz / Gilberto
SEALED limited edition 45 rpm 180 gram Vinyl
2 LP set. Verve/Analogue Productions AVRJ 8545-45. Stereo, limited edition remastered reissue. COVER &
VINYL: MINT still sealed, never played, heavy gatefold cover.
Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound
Mono & Stereo magazine's reviewer Matej
Isak says Chad Kassem's efforts via his Quality Record Pressings
pressing plant "goes beyond simple vinyl revival." "What can I say? I
have a few different copies of this album and this release is of a
completely different nature of sound. Like with another unforgettable
(release) Nat 'King' Cole — Love Is The Thing (AAPP 824-45)
this is as good as it gets, without having the real master tapes on
hand. It's a celebration of analog." Isak also raves, "Everything is
even more subtle and present. Astrud's vocals finally got the needed
three-dimensionality and 'spirit' and Getz's saxophone breathes out of
proportion. When compared to other pressings, for example, Astrud is a
mere statue. Here, she came alive with the feeling of real life-size.
... With 45 RPM benefits, the album gained better transients and a sense
of atmosphere. It moves you more intimately and straight to the core."
Matej Isak, Mono & Stereo magazine, May 2013. Beyond highly recommended." Named a Mono & Stereo Strictly Vinyl Analog Award winner.
"...To say that the resulting new stereo master is anything but a
major sonic breakthrough would be to make the understatement of the
decade. Simply put, audiophile jargon and usual hyperbolas aside, this
new release is like hearing the record for the very first time, in the
studio, with Astrud and team granting you a personal performance for the
night. There is just so much more information present, that you really
can't fairly compare any of the previous releases with this one." - Danny Kaey, Positive Feedback, September/October 2011
The original master tapes for this title had not been used
since 1980 previous to this reissue. Also, for this Analogue Productions
reissue the decision was made to master and present this album as it
was originally mixed to master tape. With very few exceptions all
versions of this title to date, including the original, have had the
channels incorrectly reversed. With this version, you'll hear this title
as it was intended to be heard, without the channels reversed. And
again, those reissues you've heard up until now - definitely still
breathy, warm and rich - were made from something less than the master.
Prepare to hear the veil removed.
Astrud Gilberto says that her husband, Joao, informed Stan Getz that
she "could sing at the recording." Creed Taylor recalls that it took
Getz's wife, Monica, to get both Astrud and Joao into the recording
studio; Mrs. Getz had a sense that Astrud could make a hit. And Getz
himself is on record saying that he insisted on Astrud's
presence over the others' objections. So who's right? What does it
matter? The Gilbertos, Getz and the legendary Antonio Carlos Jobim
followed up the bossa nova success of Jazz Samba with this, the
defining LP of the genre. With one of the greatest hit singles jazz has
ever known - each one who hears it goes "Ahhh!"
Originally released in 1963.

GRADING. Grading is
visual only unless otherwise stated. I go by Goldmine standards and try to be
conservative. I will play grade on certain items only - it is just impossible
for me to play grade everything I put on EBAY.
RECORD GRADING:
MINT
(M) ---- It should be SEALED and appear to be brand new. Mint means STILL SEALED, NEVER PLAYED. NEAR MINT (NM or NM-) ---- OPENED or UNSEALED. Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny
inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to
perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG++ or strong VG++ or VG+++) The record or cover
that all but the most particular collector would say looks outstanding.
Cover may have insignificant manufacturers defect such as notch hole or
cut corner.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+ or strong VG+) The record has been handled and
played infrequently or very carefully. On a disc, there may be light
paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of
the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect
play would be acceptable for most collectors. Cover has most of its
original gloss and has been well taken care of. Minor seam splits may
be acceptable.
VERY GOOD (VG or strong VG) ---- Record displays visible signs of
handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface
scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise,
non-feelable marks that might or will affect the sound as mild
occasional surface noise or periodic pops/clicks. Usually a cover is VG
when one or more of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits,
bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.
VERY GOOD- (VG- or G+)
Record will show signs same as VG with heavier wear including noticeable
groove wear and feelable marks that will likely pop or click. Popping
or clicking will be most evident through quieter passages. Record
should play all the way through, but may skip.
GOOD (G) ---- Well
played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite
defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping,
but may skip. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not
obliterate the artwork. Filler copy until a better one can be found.
POOR
(P) ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good"
grading should be seen as Poor. Only the rarest of records should ever
be graded as Poor while the others should go to the trash heap.
DISCLAIMER. Due to
the number of frivolous
returns which were
unwarranted, and due to the
nature of sound recorded products that can be easily
copied, there will no
longer be a free return policy. I will charge a
$10.00 return fee for
all returns - this amount will be deducted
from the Paypal refund of the returned
item.
If item is truly
defective the entire purchase
amount
will be refunded as
long as the item is in the same condition as it was sent.
