Today, I start an intermittent series I call Backgrounder," featuring great, rare albums that are probably unknown to you. My intent is to provide you with superb music while you work or read that I'm listening to as well. So we'll be listening to the exact same music at the exact same time. Cool, right? Hopefully, you'll love the music as much as I do.
My first offering is The Ipanema Pop Orchestra's Bossa Nova for Swinging Lovers, an instrumental album recorded in Rio de Janeiro with brass and strings and released in 1965 on the London label. The arranging and conducting were handled by Eumir Deodato, Cipó and Luiz Eca.
Here's the full album, without ads. Enjoy!
