Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded in a single afternoon in a Washington D.C. church, this monumental collaboration is widely credited with igniting the bossa nova craze in the United States. Spurred by guitarist Charlie Byrd's recent trip to Brazil, the profoundly soothing album became a massive commercial hit, landing 'Desafinado' high on the pop charts.
