Haven't found much Bossa Nova in bargain bins before, but this one is an absolute gem! Vinicius+Bethania+Toquinho for 1 € :)

Wow thanks for all the info! Lots to check out!

At first I was a bit confused because I mixed it up with Fado, which is Portuguese. This music is latin/bossanova which is South American.

Bossanova seems more playful and light compared to Fado.

Love the music and love the language, even though I also have no clue what they’re singing.

Doesn’t really matter when it hits the spot, right?

Thanks again for all the info! I’ll go jump in the rabbit hole now 🐰

    Yes indeed. Fado is a traditional Portuguese Folk music. It often feels a lot more heavy (although very beautiful). While bossa nova was an explosion of an optimistic kind of light, smooth jazz in late 1950s Brazil until early 1970s. Samba meets Jazz. But there's some overlap and influences between bossa nova and fado.

    Love the music and love the language, even though I also have no clue what they’re singing.

    Same for me!

    Enjoy!
