George Klein presents the final segment of a multi-part series commemorating Stan Getz, who passed away in 1991. This hour is from 1962-63, the first years of the bossa nova craze in the U.S. The Getz album with guitarist Charlie Byrd, Jazz Samba, was a huge hit that inspired many musicians to try bossa nova for musical & monetary reasons. Other collaborations were also influential: Big Band Bossa Nova with Gary McFarland, and Jazz Samba Encore with Luis Bonfa.
