Description:
Most die-hard Brazilian music fans would argue that Getz/Gilberto, the iconic 1964 album featuring "The Girl from Ipanema," is not the best bossa nova record. Yet we've all heard "The Girl from Ipanema" as background music in a thousand anodyne settings, from cocktail parties to telephone hold music. So how did Getz/Gilberto become the Brazilian album known around the world, crossing generational and demographic divides'



Bryan McCann traces the history and making of Getz/Gilberto as a musical collaboration between leading figure of bossa nova Jo Eo Gilberto and Philadelphia-born and New York-raised cool jazz artist Stan Getz. McCann also reveals the contributions of the less-understood participants (Astrud Gilberto's unrehearsed, English-language vocals; Creed Taylor's immaculate production; Olga Albizu's arresting, abstract-expressionist cover art) to show how a perfect balance of talents led to not just a great album, but a global pop sensation. And he explains how Getz/Gilberto emerged from the context of Bossa Nova Rio de Janeiro, the brief period when the subtle harmonies and aching melodies of bossa nova seemed to distill the spirit of a modernizing, sensuous city.

33 1/3 Global, a series related to but independent from 33 1/3, takes the format of the original series of short, music-based books and brings the focus to music throughout the world. With initial volumes focusing on Japanese and Brazilian music, the series will also include volumes on the popular music of Australia/Oceania, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and more.

Softest beauty blender on the market.
These are the softest and best beauty blender out there. I didn’t want to believe they were any different than all the rest, but they are! And what a price.

Best on the market
Super soft, better for blending. Best beauty blender I've found so far. Will repurchase, just not too soon because multiple come in a pack. Great for any type of make up whether it's foundation, concealer, liquid blush or even bronzer. Very happy with this purchase.

Gets the job done
The sponge has worked good so far at blending my makeup. It’s pretty soft, especially after dampening it. The only complaints are that my foundation left stains on the sponge even though I have washed it, and pink coloring was washing of the sponge after washing it the first time which was a little concerning.

Great for liquid foundation
These are great quality and value! I saw them on a TikTok and thought the price made them worth trying. They apply product well and evenly and they last a decent amount of time as well.
