180-Gram Limited Edition. Includes specially prepared liner notes by Brian Morton. Brazilian singer/song writer João Gilberto was a legend of bossa nova. While Antônio Carlos Jobim set the standard for the creation of bossa nova in the mid-'50s (with songs like "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Desafinado"), it was Gilberto who brilliantly reimagined (and, arguably, defined) the genre. In 1959 Gilberto presented his first LP, Chega de Saudade. The title song turned into a hit, launching Gilberto's career and the bossa nova craze. 180-GRAM VIRGIN VINYL - THE COMPLETE LP + 8 BONUS TRACKS - Includes specially prepared liner notes by celebrated music writer Brian Morton - LIMITED EDITION
